Notes:
Normal GoToMeeting session in the morning. My computer was acting up so I had to restart and reboot in order to connect. Once I got on, I met briefly with both Alan and Calvin and we played a little catch-up on the sales tax expansion project.

Later on around 10 am, I got on a GoToMeeting session with Megan Carr and Steve Blood from Columbia Care. They were asking questions about getting access to raw data. We presented a number of simple options going from easiest to more complex and custom. These were options such as:
1. Add new users and use system as is

2. Use existing exports, reports, and API sockets

3. Go custom - dream it up and we build it

4. Dedicated servers and remote access

They then asked a number of questions and I gave them a quick little demo and showed them some tables and light raw data. We did a small sample query and talked about exports to MS Excel, CSV, XML, and/or JSON. We also talked about direct access to a remote datasource once they get a dedicated server in place. I referred them to Steve and his quote on the dedicated boxes and prices.

After they left, I was working on the code review for Will and the adilas API refactor project. Towards the end of the session, Calvin got back on and asked some questions and reported on where he is at with testing on the sales tax expansion project. He also recommended that we stick to some kind of a web-based interface to serve up the raw data requested above. He recommended an API type interface so that we could monitor things, validate entries, and limit access to certain areas. I fully agree and will try to push things towards normal export features and/or internal API socket connections. Great idea.
