Whats New in girm.git (IRM 2)
Just a quick update highlighting what is going on in girm.it, the Git repository for IRM 2 (on Grails).
- It is now possible to create, view and browse Assets based upon Schemas, which are user defined.
- You can create Schemas and Fields in a Schema
- The functionality for linking CRI (Cross Reference Identifiers) is in place - needs more work on the GUI front.
While gIRM isn’t even into alpha stages, its showing a lot of promising functionality already. Next up is a first hash of the Ticketing support system (Tracking mk 2), as well as “personalities”.
Personalities are an abstraction to Schemas which allow you to associate sub-schemas with a master schema. For instance, you can create a “Network Connectivity”personality and associate it with both a printer and a computer. Personalities can also impart custom logic to the application - such as link graphs in the case of a Network Connectivity personality. The mechanism for this isn’t quite designed yet 
Feature suggestions are always welcome!
