Oshadi P.A.U., Hettiarachchi P.S. and Gayan Kumara were preparing for the presentation.

Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. was failed to change the interfaces as I wanted so I changed the most of the interfaces with him and instructed him whole day without doing anyting.

Finally I was able to design with him the interfaces which we should include in the presentation upto some extent. But they all should be re-designed because they do not seem to be user friendly.

Also I written the summary which Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. should present at the presentation.

Location: Home

I edited the whole presentation and included the parts which Oshadi P.A.U., Hettiarachchi P.S. and Gayan Kumara were preparing. And completed the presentation by 2.15am.

Also I prepared myself for presenting the introduction of the presentation. I e-mailed the final presentation to all the members.

Saturday 30th of August 2008

Location: SLIIT

Only Oshadi P.A.U., Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. and Katangodage B.T.(I) participated for the meeting.

Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. went home early due to his sickness and I checked and corrected the presentation which Oshadi P.A.U. prepared to present by herself.

Location: Home

I advised to Ileperuma H.A. to submit the completed presentation at night.

Also I advised Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. to change the appearance of the interfaces which he had showed me to make them look like professional.

At night I edited the presentation which I received from Ileperuma H.A.

Informed about the meeting on 31st of August 2008.

Friday 29th of August 2008

Location: SLIIT

The deadline for submitting the user interfaces is today. The interface designing team took nearly 2 months to produce an interface for our project.
 
Ariyadasa H.M.L.L. showed the designs he designed. Though it is not upto the standards which i expected, the home page was fairly ok upto some extent. But all the designs need to be more professional and user friendly than this.
 
So, Katangodage B.T.(I) advised him to change the button styles and the background of the pages. Also I advised him to make all the forms into the size of one screen so, it'll be easy to be fill them up.

But the designing team could not do any changes today.

I checked the database queries which Gayan Kumara has written.

The presentation was submitted to me today by Ileperuma H.A. though the deadline was on yesterday. It needs to be changed a lot before it becomes as the final prototype presentation.

The next meeting is scheduled on 30th August at 2.30pm at SLIIT to check each member's part of the presentation.

Location: Home

I updated the blog and referred to some JavaServer Faces tutorials.
