			=='''NEW''' Rebuild the database frontend using CodeIgniter==

			During last years GSoC, a database frontend was developed using CakePHP. Limesurvey has since decided to switch to the CodeIgniter framework. As such, last years work needs to be ported to CodeIgniter.

			All documentation from last year is available at [[Database Storage Engine Project\|here]] aswell as the source of the developed CakePHP modules which can be found [https://limesurvey.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/limesurvey/source/limesurvey20/limesurvey-dev/app/plugins/ here] - the plugins market with dbse.

			The final project has to comply with the API developed last year, changes have to be discussed.

			'''Skills'''

			PHP, SQL, Object oriented programming & design patterns, CodeIgniter, CakePHP

			'''Difficulty'''

			Medium, Main challenges will be database abstraction and automatic generation of sql code out of survey structures.

			==Adding new questions/subquestions and groups dynamically==

			Currently in LimeSurvey once a survey is activated we can not
			*Add or delete groups
			*Add or delete questions
			*Add or delete subquestions or change their codes

			The idea is to cover these shortcomings. And in addition, all those participants who have already taken that survey must also be notified about the changes.

			'''Skills'''

			Experience with a PHP framework like CakePHP or CodeIgniter and knowledge of inner working of LimeSurvey is must!
