Yuan Yao will be graduating this year; they are looking for a replacement
GoGaucho suggestion: Could AS/Sean Lieberman take long term ownership of the application?
Hengyu is a student worker at AS right now. He will bring this up with Sean and let the group know what came from the discussion.
Phil Conrad has fallen ill with cancer. So, he probably won't be able to do much in the way of API Gateway.
Tobias Holler is "notorious" for not answering email; an in person will probably be a better approach. (Maybe a phone call first)
Tobias is a VR / UI guy, he may not have that much of an interest in the Campus API project. But, he may have suggestions for other faculty who are.
Time Management
Since the last meeting, not much coding progress has been made. Mostly due to school work and jobs eating into Henry and Yuan's time.
Looking back at the last 7 weeks there is not a great deal of confidence of what can progress before Spring Break.
All of the GoGaucho Improvements items have been retargeted to the end of Spring Break.
University's Responsible Stewardship of Data and progress of OAuth Integration
It was discussed that the University has a responsibility to ensure that student data is protected and used responsibly. As part of that, the University made a tentative agreement to move forward with the GoGaucho application continuing to use it current login mechanism (the students directly entrying their ucsbNetId/password) in the mobile and screen scraping the data on good faith that the GoGaucho team would develop an OAuth based login and API Gateway based data retrieval for the student data. With the slow progress on the Proof of Concept work for the GoGaucho app to use a OAuth/JWT based login process there is concern that the University will need to reconsider if they (the University) is upholding it's responsibility of stewardship for the data.
Student API support for JWT tokens
The Registrar's office has made some great strides in OAuth/JWT support. Within the next week these APIs will be updated to accept JWT tokens:
Student Academic Programs (Majors / Minors)
Student Basic Student Info
