The AFO National Capital Region web site of 2000 was translated to templates.
This started on March 1, and proceeded until March 19, 2001, at which point a mock up of the Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal and Nanaimo web sites were put online.
These were left online for one week for review. During that period very little feedback was received, nor was enough feedback actively sought.
A second review period was scheduled for March 28 through April 3rd, during which a mock challenge was also scheduled.
BEST promised feedback for April 3, 2001, but as of the time of this writing, little substantive feedback has been received. It is understood that a far more proactive method of getting feedback is necessary. The distance gets in the way too much in this context. Given more time, an in-person feedback session would have been scheduled.
Environment Canada personnel provided large amounts of feedback. A total of 24 problems were reported by April 9. Of these 16% have been fixed to date, the remaining (mostly minor wording problems) will be addressed by May 7. All of the functional issues with the data entry portions have been resolved.
A city captain's resource kit, including a template for a team captain's info kit was to be prepared. The first revision went online on March 26. Based upon feedback received, version 2 was put online on April 22.
