Progress of the new Devon & Cornwall website

The new website is being front end coded for testing at the moment. I am aiming to complete a static working site for members of the public, our partners and staff to test by mid August. This static site will have no dynamic content (no linkage to a database of content.) It is purely to test the look and feel of the site and to suggest how certain features will work. It is hoped that by doing this we will get fewer if any, change requests once the developers start programming the site.

The developers are presently working on the APIs, that will handle the information from its various sources and push it out to the appropriate webpage when called by a user.

Speak again in a couple of weeks, hopefully with a link to the testing site.
