[Dev-flock] prototype

[Lucy Mendel]

yo,

It's important that we get the prototype into a working state ASAP and
fully functional before Thanksgiving.

Some tasks are on the wiki GUI page.

The behavior/argument blocks are fairly broken and waiting for Dan's
form validation---or would it still be good to get the javascript and
HTML working for now? How much is the infrastructure changing?

The graph and user pages need information from the database via
python. Question: I want to give the django template and/or javascript
function a datastructure like:

array of { nodename, no.arguments, no.behaviors, all dimension names,
tags, behavior tags, etc }

a list of mappings created in the python code.  I can create a list of
mappings in python and then give that in the dictionary to the django
template (i think)? can i serialize this to json?
this is a bit of a dumb question, but i'm blocked on this. a quick
example, or even filling in some values on the table in the graph page
would be helpful to get things rolling. similar for the user page.

i have to run now, but i'll be on later. you can call 617 216 8768 if
you have questions or want to chat.

Mike, I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. The task I
mentioned above is fine to start working on, as are any of the open
tasks on the wiki GUI page

thanks!
