week 1

I spent most of my first week browsing the repositories and trying to get a grasp of the overall project objectives. And, of course, trying to learn the litany of acronyms (maybe we should start a post just to start documenting them for quick reference).

We did get a simple landing page put together. The team has built some terrific demonstration applications, so a summary page was needed to briefly describe their respective functionality and also launch to the actual demo. It is a simple html page with a little added javascript functionality. You can find it here.

I am thrilled to be working on this open source project that has enormous potential for public health informatics. There are really great individuals on the team and I am excited to be working with them.
