March 2008: what's going on?

[Robert Brook]

You may have noticed that we've gone a bit quiet - and that there have
not been many recent changes to the site. You may rest assured that
work has been continuing behind the scenes.

We've been continuing to write code that is intended to go onto the
public website, including links for acts and bills, a slightly lighter
look and feel and further improvements to the parser. If you've seen
me demoing the site, you'll have noticed the difference between the
public site and what you saw.

The present work is due to end at the close of March. A decision about
what happens as regards further work on the site is due to me made
shortly. We'll let you know when we know.

We're at the stage now where we can't make any further changes to the
public site: we're out of space! While that shouldn't be a problem in
itself, it does mean that the public site won't change, for now.

Please bear with us. Your comments are most welcome, either in this
group or elsewhere. The site has been developed with as much user
feedback as we can gather: if you're missing a favourite function, or
something doesn't work the way you expect it to, we'd be glad to hear
from you.
