Change of Plans

After talking with Jeff Haack again, priority will be given to getting the Rails port up and running with the extra configurations. The three main goals of this are:
1. Setting up the Rails Port properly. It only runs on Rails 2, yet needs to run on a server running Rails 3 apps. This should only be a matter of redirecting the Rails targets to version 2, although there may be complications depending on the global path variables set within the server.
2. Connecting to a mail server. Part of the user authentication plan is to send the user an email confirming the user/pass details.
3. Allowing JOSM use with the API. JOSM is the OSM data editor, and can be configured to different servers to edit the data with proper authentication via a username and password. Currently, the front end portion of it loads but is not able to be accessed via the JOSM editor.

Other minor goals are to get the history and export functions configurable and see what configuration options are needed to change the front page view.

Currently, I’m in the process of reinstalling the rails port from scratch using my documentation previously created and am now editing it to match the updated version changes.
