The Works of DANTE - Issue 1

Latest Website Updates

Have you visited www.dante.net recently? If not, then you may be surprised to see how much has changed. The site was relaunched in October 2003, following a complete redesign, and is being continuously developed to provide a comprehensive resource of information on the work of DANTE.

DANTE's new web presence includes microsites for all the projects DANTE is managing, plus background information, press releases, presentations, and project deliverables. Each microsite also contains restricted areas where project partners can share information and documents specific to the projects on which they are collaborating.

As well as containing much of our publicity material in electronic format, all the project microsites feature a dedicated order form. You can use this form to request free publicity materials including network topology posters and brochures.

The research community works in a fast-moving environment and we are developing and expanding the website to reflect this. We would welcome your comments on what you’d like to see on the site. You can contact DANTE's webmaster via the site feedback form, available at www.dante.net/feedback.

The new site has been built in XHTML, with a view to establishing its full compliance with the latest Web standards, and to provide an easy upgrade path as browser support for Web standards becomes more widespread. The new site also aims to achieve conformance to W3C Accessibility Guidelines - providing a site that is easy for disabled people to navigate and use.

With so much new content, the DANTE website is the best place to keep up to date with all the latest news and information on our activities.
