Project Name: IS Web Redesign Project
Project Leader: Christine Cavanna
                 Jeff Reed
Report Date: May 9, 2003
URL: http://web.mit.edu/is/delivery/isweb/

Accomplishments in April
  - Continued work on content for topic pages.
  - Feedback and code reviews on templates done by team and sent to Barrett
  - Received final templates from Barrett, began reviews with content owners
    and began production of pages.
  - Completed Project Evaluations for Core Team members and sent to respective
    team leaders.
  - Continued discussions w/Greg Anderson (sponsor), Jeanne Cavanaugh and Chris
    Sherrill about proposal for how to handle implementation and ongoing
    maintenance of the web site into the future.

Goals for May
  - Finalize Style Guide and Guidelines and Procedures document with Barrett
    and post an on-line version for reference.
  - Finalize content gathering and populate and produce pages for phase I site
    launch
  - Finalize Implementation Plan and announce solution to ongoing maintenance
    of the IS web site beginning in July
  - Continue outreach with customers on content for phase I launch and future
    content conversions.
  - Launch the new site!

Next Community Milestone
  - Launch anticipated by the end of May via no complications with page
    production.

Issues/Learnings
  - When dealing with customers/content owners, it is better to keep them in the
    loop along the way and over-communicate your approach than to catch them off
    guard! :-)
