I have been working with Internet technology and its challenges
since 1989 and our most difficult task is to quickly convert
legacy applications and data into a web based application. The
best example of this legacy application was the Navy's
Engineering Change Proposal Application. An automated tool was
supposed to streamline a very common business task. Many
contractors and application developers have attempted to automate
this process and have failed. We turned to the development
product ZOPE and have completely rewritten the meaning of legacy
conversions. The ECP application was developed under ZOPE and
accepted after an extensive competitive development process.
