It’s been a while since we’ve posted anything on the blog, but we wanted to bring you up-to-date on our design process. In mid-February, we met at ASTC headquarters in Washington for a day-long meeting to review the ALPHA site.

Our core team has been working with the ALPHA build for the last few weeks, and their comments have helped us fine tune the structure of the site as work toward BETA. (The latest site diagram above is available as a PDF.) One of our main concerns has been to make this site as responsive to the needs and ways of working of exhibit practitioners — including time constraints. So we’ve been simplying and clarifying while working out bugs. Work has begun on the final phase which will lead to a BETA release. We’ll be publishing that release date soon.
