COSMO General Meeting, Rome, 5-9 September 2010 Does the COSMO website need to be redesigned?? • If “YES” what could be the starting point for that?? • Do we need a more dynamical website? What will be the structure of the site? • Identify the most accessed information from the actual website and (maybe) redefine the target users • The website is based on html, js, css. Do we need other web technologies? (php, sql,asp…) • What could be the costs? (FTE’s) • If “NOT” what should be improved?? • Identify some web pages that we don’t need anymore • Create new menus/submenus for some scientific purposes • Re-design only the home webpage, but keep the same structure • Increase the communication within the consortium => web pages updated in time
