====== Community Materials Assay Database Working Group ======
**Charge:**
Our goal is to develop a Universal Materials Database for use by the community of researchers who need materials with low radioactivity for the construction of their experiments.  This database will be portable and downloadable with a well-designed data format and high quality interface.  It is envisioned to be a reference guide for the low-background community to organize and share data, much like the Particle Data Group (PDG) provides for the particle-physics community. 

**Goal:**
Our year 1 goal is to have a working version 1 of the database for use and demonstration to the community at the LRT2013 conference.  In year 2 our goal is to polish and refine the database into a well developed tool.

=====To do List =====

See weekly minutes for list of weekly tasks.

===== Requirements =====

Different data views - tabular view, (interaction columns) [H]
  - some data viewing/manipulation library

Security [H]
   - allow secure use of user interface [H]
   - investigate proper user/admin model [H]
   - implement proper user/admin model [M]

Preferences capability [L]
   - document-based (depends on user model)

Flexible document structure [M]
   - code to handle this [M]
   - position/implementation/storage/upgradability of data structure in code [L]
      - JL prejudice is not to compartmentalize data structure from the code

Search [H] 
   - code needs to know what search services available
   - simple fall-back (view+loop) in case none are available
   - couchdb-lucene where available
   - Cloudant Search (~couchdb-lucene) where available
 
Data download [M] 
   - CSV
   - ROOT
