Nailing Down Wilbur

Dale and I continued our assault on the loose ends of database migration from Wilb to Aero today. We have been collecting data on which packages are still being used for about two weeks. For all schemas except three, we're as ready as we're going to get for shutting down Wilb. We have posted notices that appear in each schema directing users to the Aero URL, but without doing so automatically.

Three schemas are in the process of major rewrites, so there's no choice but to leave them on Wilb until the rewrites are completed. Summer is working on Admissions, Ron is working on a web calendar application, and Camilla is working on a library reference app.

Dale and I both felt pretty good about the status of Wilb now. By the way, if you are a member of UCS staff, there is an excel spreadsheet on i:\\db_migration_aero\newschemas.xls that contains information on all the schemas.

When we got done with our Wilbur chores, Dale showed me the way to use LDAP authentication. I've got a campus-wide app that needs to be converted over to use LDAP, so will begin work on that soon.
