Notes:
Met with the Thomas Edison Charter School (south campus). Chris Johnnie and Dave Forbis were there as well. Russell was joined in through a Zoom session. We met with their people and talked about options and logistics. We had people from both campuses online with us over Skype. There were quite a few questions and some good discussion. We have already given them a demo a couple of time but they keep changing who is there. This time we did have some computer tech people who seem to be the key players. The Administrators have virtually said yes, they are now deferring to the tech people to make sure everything is going to line up ok.

Some of the topics of the day were:
- Group Mass Texting - Told them about Calvin's GMexting program.
- Digital signatures and document management (media/content).
- Inventory controls with barcodes, labels, and checking in/out text books (mini rental type scenario).
- Budgetting, Monies, and Financial Reports.
- Exporting Data and connecting to other state sites and databases through API socket connections.
- Parent organizations and helping them keep track of events and monies (virtual ecommerce, bill pays, parent portals, to do lists, and document management stuff).
- Looking forward into multi-levels of students, parents, teachers, and administrator levels for permissions, settings, and custom interfaces.

Overall a great meeting. Dave, Chris, and Russell did awesome and I only had to chime in a couple of time other then when they gave the floor to me to talk about things. Great meeting. Chris Johnnie has been babysitting this one for over a year now. Kinda interesting how long it really takes for a bigger organization like this to bite the virtual fish hook. Interesting.
