Lots of NSE & NEET Updates #35

Closed hereiam-at-mit-dot-edu closed 5 years ago

hereiam-at-mit-dot-edu commented 5 years ago

Just changes to the majors.js file, comprising updates to NEET and Course 22. If you can merge this one soon, the NEET folks would like to launch everything today, simultaneously, so the sooner this goes up the better for them.

Hey Michael, thanks for the diligence with requirements and stuff! We're actually about to launch the completely new courseroad in a week (secretly public here), so I'll still merge this in for you but you may want to check that out because it depends on a different and better-organized requirement structure and that's what people will be using after next Wednesday. I'm sorry you went through all this trouble not knowing about the new version's timeline...

Before pushing to the main site, could you please go to my clone (for testing) and just confirm that the changes are what you expect?

Hi Nate and Danny,

All set, the clone for testing works perfectly. I didn't know about the new site, though I'm glad to hear it's coming out soon! Would you still be able to merge this one for now, and auto-wrap the requirements into the new Courseroad structure?

Cheers, -Mike

Should be live now!

Unfortunately there isn't a way to automatically convert from one format to the other. The new format is nice in that it lets you add more user-facing descriptions and have some more control over stuff like that, but even if you don't feel like going through all that work again I'd still send feedback through that link letting the FireRoad team (and @venkatesh-sivaraman in particular) know that NEET needs updating, and someone will get to it eventually.

Thanks! And I don't mind learning the new syntax at all. Just checking, when will the old Courseroad permanently go down?

Cheers, -Mike

We'll keep the old courseroad up indefinitely so people can export their roads to the new version, but it will become permanently un-maintained next Wednesday.
