New Website! Posted By: noreply@blogger.com (Mike McFerron), Mon, 29 Aug 2011 03:32:00 +0000
After three years of development, we are happy to announce the launch of the new SCI website. A newly formed SCI Webteam gathered at theLewis University Music Technology Lab in 2008 to hold a three-day "webathon" and began coding the reconstruction of societyofcomposers.org. Our new site has been written to conform to current web standards, and members are encouraged to visit our site with a standards-compliant browser such as Firefox, Opera,Camino, Konqueror, or Safari. The site was designed in Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and makes use of several web-oriented technologies including PHP, perl, MySQL, Smarty Templates and the javascript library moofx for visual trickery. After a Herculean effort, the website is now live!
