Fall 2007

Felipe stepped out for a bit.

From the download team - we decided to use simple byte arrays to transfer files between servers and between the server and the web app. MTOM can be implemented later on with simplicity, but the Web Enhancements 3.0 package needs to be installed.

The Web Enhancements 3.0 package can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=018a09fd-3a74-43c5-8ec1-8d789091255d&displaylang=en.

For MIME types, the server will send back the MIME type to the web app, which will decide what to do with the information. What still needs to be done - research on how to get the MIME type from a file.

Try to get an implementation done by Saturday night NOON when we will meet to test things. Try to be able to connect with at least one other person by then.

There will be a survey made on SharePoint, which will allow us to track with whom everybody has attempted connection with, along with who has tested completely. Also provided may be additional details about arranging testing.

Standardization of downloading will be as follows:

byte[] download(String XML)

 

Also how will the server respond with MIME types?

And what goes in the xml parameter of Download?

This should be documented.
