We’ll start out with scheduled updates. Jesuits have to be reminded to
update documents. The period between updates varies per person (age
bracket and custom). It may be a good idea to support different kinds
of documents, too.

They need something to last years, so we can’t turn it over to the
students. Pair programming might be a good idea – forces my code to be
readable.

Actually, if it’s Java, it can run on their own computers, and then
just send the data to a central server every so often. (version
2… =) ) We need to make this as painless to run as possible, which
means no external database. It also needs to be as paranoid as heck
when it comes to saving.

Data associated with each Jesuit:

id (surrogate primary key)
name
birthdate
description

I promised them a prototype in two weeks.
