Hi James/Matt
As Matt mentions: 'With the "revitalized" service, we've got a new setup now,
with the backend services (DWS, DPWS) completely separated from the front end
portal (DDS, DPP). Clearly there's a need to ensure that updates to any of
these 4 (and the vocab service) are managed together, but also to overcome
planning blight and ensure that progress can be made with them when needed.'
The back-end services are hosted at CEDA and the front-end portal will be
hosted at BODC. Consequently, it has already been recognized that the change
management procedures are an important component of the 'revitalizing' project.
Therefore the project brief contains the deliverable 'Produce protocol document
to disseminate procedures and responsibilities for robust testing, routine
maintenance, trouble shooting, and change management.' by 31/10/2010. It is
envisaged that this document will be authored by all concerned.
However as Steve Donegan and I undertook the preparation of an important (but
out of the original 'revitalizing' project scope) document to finalize NERC
Metadata Standard I've anticipated that this deliverable will be a little
behind schedule as work is yet to start. This delay has already be
communicated to SIB.
