Package: Partner Management Tool
System name: prime
This package does NOT want to apply for inclusion in the GNU project

The purpose of this project is to develop a web-based application for managing 
the relationships between an organization and its partners. The primary focus 
will be to develop this project for Mennonite Central Committee Bangladesh, an 
NGO I am volunteering for.

The final application will be usable by any organization with similar needs. I 
have seen many other NGOs with the same problem: a need to better manage the 
information on the partners they work with, and especially an ability to 
collect data monitored on a regular basis, and assess that data against 
evaluative criteria. Note that a partner could be another organization, a 
person, a family, a village, etc.

I intend to develop it in such a way that any organization can define the 
following:

1) background information on their partner(s)
2) what information to collect periodically
3) evaluative criteria

The application will be built using primarily PHP and MySQL, with possibly some 
Javascript and other technologies like XML. I am very interested in using the 
Binarycloud PHP development framework (http://binarycloud.tigris.org/) for this 
project.

Presently, the project is in initial planning stage. I hope to publish 
requirement and design documents by end of January.
