Major WebCMS Upgrade and Two-week Content Freeze
 On Monday, March 28, at 8 a.m., the WebCMS Team and the dotCMS company will begin a significant upgrade to the Web Content Management System (WebCMS) software behind IPFW's Web site. This will require a temporary freeze of all site content. The projected "thaw" date is Monday, April 11, at 8 a.m.
Web authors should update content before March 28, as changes and additions will not be possible for two weeks. The upgrade process will not affect existing content.
WebCMS users should be able to familiarize themselves with the upgraded system; however, IT Services will offer training to those who would like assistance. |

"Tags" resembling bar codes are affixed to signs on the first, second, and fourth floors. When a picture is taken with a smart phone, a mini Web site created for mobile devices displays the number of available computers. |
