CPR PROJECT PROGRESS
(As on 29 April 2016)
‘Transcription’ is the process of converting written source
records into some digital form. In the CPR Project, the digital form
is ANSI (American National Standards Institute) ASCII (ANSI Standard
Code for Information Interchange) text.
Transcription progress is reported in the table below intermittently
(usually during University vacations).
When parish transcription has begun its name is entered in the
alphabetically ordered table below.
The process continues one event at a time and moves from being
‘in hand’, to
‘in progress’,
‘in progress, all events’, to
‘DONE’.
Other stages that intervene, but are usually not reported in
the table, are
‘edit’ and
‘checking’ -
the latter usually associated with tricky BTs, and the older PRs.
When DONE, the various load processes begin when a processing
‘priority number’
is ascribed to the parish.

With the load of Wilmslow (32) on 29 April 2016 we have now processed 32 parishes.
Great Budworth - ST MARY AND ALL SAINTS, 1588-1871 (31) was loaded on 10 March 2015.
Full notes are available for 31 parishes.
(There were few transcriber notes for Nantwich and so for
this parish only, the Notes are currently in sketch form).
Transcription is proceeding apace as reported above.
However, no other parishes are sufficiently near completion
that they may be given a processing priority number
(in blue and in brackets below)
at this stage.
When they have passed the final data processing hurdles,
they are scheduled for load on a specific date.
When Parish notes are begun, a red dot appears, this turns
green when the notes are complete and are available.
(NB: the Notes in draft may become available before the records
themselves are loaded)

- Version 1 - archived
- Version 2 - went live on 12 April 2001; now archived
- Data: within days of data being cleared for loading, they appear in CPRdb.
- System: CGI/Perl to OpenIngres Version 2.0; QFF only; CPRdb V2.1 has QBT and QCE; Essentially V2 is bug correction and minor changes only.
- Text: Note, Glossary and Help text is being constantly updated.
- Version 3 - first live 25 February 2003; relaunched 16 December 2003. Various minor changes are reflected in the full version number which on 3 July 2010 was v3.5. On 20 June 2011 v3.6 became the live version with one substantive change to the FF query system. A surname search for MELNER now automatically includes all *MELNER records (the * signalling that BT variants exist). This avoids the need to issue a second *surname search.
- Data: bulk data loading only envisaged
- System: CGI/Perl and Java servlets/JDBC to Oracle Version 10i; All query methods available (QBT and QCE restricted); Linkage tools present and available over the web (restricted).
- Text: Note, Glossary and Help text as for v2.1 but more stable; Hooks for user notes available.
- Version 4 - work in progress
- Data: web based loading, update, and edit to be possible.
- System: All query methods to be made web available, using new web paradigms where appropriate. Statistical, Linkage, Mapping, and System Administration tools also available over the Internet (restricted).
- Text: Note, Glossary and Help text should become more stable. User notes system (record tagging by users) to be made possible.
- Linkage - in progress
- Mapping - in progress
- QBT - in progress
- QCE - in progress
- Statistics - in progress
- Tagging - in progress
