Things that are true about this project

  • This is a project that I manage on an on-going basis, periodically making changes to the site's architecture and adding new features.
  • This is the 3rd generation of the site that I personally have written.
  • This site is written in PHP and MySQL, with a custom built Content Management System. (Darth Validator 2)
  • Jean(our contact) is really cool, and is a really big help in managing all of the company internal communications and condensing all of the requests that he receives into a clear and consistent bill of tasks.
  • I inherited this particular generation of the project at a later stage in development than I would have wished, so I can only take credit for 60% of the current design. That's 60% of the design that I had to replace to get it back to a decent looking state, but I am happy with how it's looking now.
  • A few years back, I re-wrote the whole site from scratch in about 3 weeks and migrated 20 years worth of back content into the new database and template structure, and Jean(our contact) liked the work so much that he sent me a case of Gatorade, which was my favorite drink at the time.
