2.4.1P2	GLF	21nov11	FIX	As noted in remarks for the User Interface Overview, we need to be clear about when we're editing the data for the department as a whole, versus an individual schedule. We will determine this at an upcoming meeting.

2.4.1P6	GLF	21nov11	FIX	The instructor data fields need to be made consistent with the prototype version of instructor data. At this point, we'll do of the following: Change the bulleted list to be THE definitive version of the instructor data fields. If there is time, update Figures 2.4.1 through 2.4.3 to be consistent with the bulleted list. If not, add the following italicized sentences after the bulleted list: "Note: Figures 2.4.1.1 through 2.4.1.3 are not fully consistent with the preceding bulleted list. The list is the definitive description of the data components of an instructor." Whether or not the prototype is updated, add the following additional italicized paragraph: "Note: In the event of any discrepancies between the preceding list and the prototype UI, the preceding list is the definitive description of instructor data components."

2.4.1P7 (Add Instructor)	GLF	21nov11	FIX	After you say that the user can "navigate away" in order not to save the information, you need to then say that when the user comes back, the unsaved information is still in the UI. This is the idea of the persistent user workspace we've talked about in class discussion, where the user can type information without saving it, navigate away, and then come back with the unsaved type information still there.
