Site Updates
Just incase you are interested, or if you're a bit of a computer geek, each time the site is updated
I will update this page with details on what's been going on. I've also added a short paragraph about how
the site was developed and what development tools I used etc.

An "Athlete Profile" section has now been added to the WPU mini site, check it out HERE.
This includes basic information about each athlete along with a recent competition history. It's going to be up to
the individual athletes to maintain their own information so lets see who's keen and who's not! I also updated the home page
and the federations page.

The "Shop" section has been added to the site. This is still a basic version and only t-shirts are available for sale.
Depending on how these sell, I may add more products later and may even accept payment via credit cards.

All the basic content has now been added, there should be no more "coming soon" pages on the site! Also added the WPU records
using a PDF document.

The site is finally live! The site was developed using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition. ASP.NET v2
is used to create the web pages and they use "code behind" classes that contain C# program code to do all the clever bits. The site
has been developed using an "n" tier architecture whereby the web front end is totally seperate from all the "business logic" that
is stored in seperate assemblies. These were also developed using C#. All updatable information on the site is stored in a
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 database and is accessed via stored procedures.
