The redesign pages are now showing page contents submenus and a list of people in credits (where they're encoded as respStmts). I still have to rework some of the basic document rendering to introduce sections and headers, but we're on the right track.

Work. Lots of it.
After checking it out with UComm, I've been trying to reproduce the rather nice two-column text boxes available as (I assume) a widget in the new template on the existing History site, for JW and LM, who want to put some on the home page. I have them working OK, but I'm not sure the department are going to want to use them. Took a bit of hacking to make them size correctly, and in the context of the old template they don't look as nice as in the new.
I now have some basic rendering for definitions and examples, so we're getting closer to something that looks like the final product will look. There are two chars missing from the fonts, but the author of the fonts may be able to add them for us (yay!). Other than that, things are looking good.
After extensive period of time working on this site, importing content from
old format to Cascade and from moving site/content to another new Cascade format
this site has been submitted to Communications for review/approval.
Awaiting feedback

Still catching up after last week...
The author of the Aboriginal fonts kindly fixed the r-with-caron rendering problem we'd identified, within an hour of our reporting it, so it looks like that will be our font of choice. Tested and working now.
Met with UComm and Humanities folks to plan the next phase of faculty website redesign.
