This sounds very interesting. Maybe we could do the same if enough people want to do this.
Not sure how elaborate we would want it, but if we want to keep it simple to begin with I recommend having a dedicated forum for this and perhaps each "parent" of the frag(s) have it's own thread for tracking. It would be up to the recipient of the frag(s) to provide updates in the thread of who they have given a frag to and so on. I don't recommend doing this on RC, but on NFMAS.com. If needed, I can host a forum for this and it could be accessed from NFMAS.com.
A much better way of tracking this would be to use a database. I opt for this approach verses the one above. I can help with the database design and hosting it on the internet. I am not too much into web site development. If anyone has web design skills with db integration I'm sure we could pull this off.
The types of tracking methods I just mentioned were discussed in the link mecold provided.
High level db concept may look something like this:
- The Parent table would have one record for each parent frag given
- and would contain pertinent details,
- but most importantly the parent frag would be auto assigned a unique id.
- The unique parent frag id would be included as a column in the Daughter table.
- The Daughter table would contain records for every "daughter" frag "paid forward" and include its own details.
- The unique parent frag id will "stay" with all daughter frags to track it origination and how it has been passed down.
We could even have a few "canned" queries available on the site for reporting on things like...
- how many parent frags has a user given,
- how many daughter frags has a member received,
- how many daughter frags did the member pass on,
- which frag has the most history.
- What are the most common type of frags being "paid forward".
As far as the details we would want to include, it could benefit the recipients of new frags by including details such as the conditions the coral was kept under (this could show throughout its "family tree") and maybe a free form comment as to how well it grew in each recipients tank under their own tank conditions.
Do we have anyone in our club that could help with the web development aspects? Like I said I can contribute to the db and hosting if needed or work with someone who also wants to help with this... more minds are better than one!
(I think about everyone has some of her frags by now either directly or indirectly).
