Affiliate accounts - or, how to get an outsider a Netlink ID

The new secondary account is called an affiliate account and it's actually a sponsored primary account - that is a 'real' primary account holder needs to sponsor an outsider to get an affiliate ID.
To set it up go here:
http://apex.uvic.ca/aims
and fill in the form (doesn't seem to work in Chrome on Linux as of v.21.0.1171.0 dev but does work in Firefox).
As I understand it, the process works like this:
1) Submit form. It goes to ID management (CS). They look at it and
2) Send it to the Helpdesk.
3) Rinse and repeat until ID management and the Helpdesk are satisfied that things are in order.
4) receive netlink ID

I have NO idea how long this process takes.

phil : fix two problems in data files

LW reported a problem in the courses page - it wasn't showing up at all. She thought it might have something to do with modification she made to the courses offered page. Turns out she had forgotten two commas. Made the changes, tested page and it still failed. Eventually found that there was also a missing square bracket in the courses taught page, not sure how that error got in there. Fixed it and the page worked.

dean : investigate student survey

The dean is interested in a survey of senior undergraduates. Considered and ruled out online possibilities due to logistical issues. Researched university support for paper-based. Mechanics handled by computer help-desk. The learning and teaching centre put me on to the Institutional Analysis office, who are the people that know the most about this kind of thing. They have a number of existing surveys which might meet the needs of the dean. He's now checking into that.
