Work in progress

This site is a work in progress and we will be adding content and features as we go along. We have lots of plans for both and welcome your suggestions also.

"Under construction" was a common feature of the early web that seems to have all but disappeared now. Generally speaking, people now seem to keep a website under wraps while it is under development and only expose it when it is considered complete. I'm not sure that I like this approach because a) I don't know if it is wise to ever "complete" a website and b) because user input while the site is developing can help craft something that is far more useful and compelling.

Conversely, ten years ago, software development projects remained hidden from public view until they had been tried, tested and refined. Nowadays, we all use alpha and beta versions of software and the web has become one big testing lab for new and emerging products. As with websites, this approach has the distinct advantage of enabling developers to adjust features and workflows in response to user feedback.

We haven't set up a feedback form yet, but it's going on the to do list and we'll add a link to it here shortly.
