Project Timetable

There are two parts to the project: the Content Management System (CMS) and the Portal System.

The CMS implementation is underway. The first pages will be converted to the new system during the winter 2006, with more pages going switching over thereafter. The first pages will come from PC users, with Mac users following in the summer.

Given the thousands of pages on the Drake sites, the speed of changeover will depend on the academic and administrative units themselves. The long-term goal is to convert all “official” pages (those containing information for which the university is responsible). The many “unofficial” pages (personal pages, student organizations, etc.) are not within the scope of the project.
