currently SWS only allow registration searches *by section* for the current quarter. we had to implement this feature in this manner due to performance issues however we can work in fixing this problem if there is enough demand on campus for this

The Course Evaluations are currently available here: https://www.washington.edu/cec/
Could we add these to the SWS?

Give students a tool to automate class and assignment schedules across a standard api... e.g. Google Calendar APIs and Tools. This will save student time and ensure accurate communication of changes

currently SWS shows all courses that "may" be available that quarter but some do not have a meeting time. There should be a flag alerting users that the course has no current sections, so they don't have to make several requests to find that out.

It now contains the catalog course description (good!). But adding these:
http://www.washington.edu/students/icd/
would allow devs to use all available course data. The new course catalog search using SWS can't fully replace the old Google-based search until it has access to ICDs.

Instead of requiring the curriculum and course number, allow a lookup to be performed with a given SLN number.

Generate a service to pull faculty CV data from Community of Science: http://www.cos.com/services/workbench.shtml

I have code that is generic enough that others could use it, but there isn't a place to share code.

A sourceforge/launchpad/codeplex-like area (hosted by UW or just a special tag for UW Web Services projects at either site) would be great. A forum would allow for knowledge capture, collaboration, and deduplication of efforts.

I would like to have a service that lets me search for all students who's majors are within my unit. I suggest that the parameters for this search should be a Major (aka Curriculum) code and a Pathway code. The result would be a list of students represented in the SWS person micro format (Name and RegID).

Provide a web service that allows access to the UW Online Work/Leave System (OWLS) data for employee schedules and available leave time.
Currently OWLS is a read only web interface for UW employees, forcing departments to implement their own systems for employees to request and get approval for leave time. This means that departments either have a cumbersome wasteful paper based system, or they implement a web based system where the schedule for every employee must be manually added into the system.

A web service of buildings and rooms would be very useful to many of us.

The Groups Web Service provisioner could source its data from SWS if:
o The section search resource accepted a timestamp, and returned only those sections which had been modified since that timestamp
o The section resource returned a system timestamp
o The registration resource optionally returned StudentNbr or UWNetId instead of RegId

As a admin assistant for faculty, I constantly have to go to the SDB to look up add codes, then send them to faculty. The printed ones get lost by faculty. It would be great if the faculty had access to add codes on the teaching section on MyUW.

These are some very common attributes that I use a lot.
