Alex Dunae created the original search engine and database query forms
in 2003. He also developed many other features of this web site.
In the Fall of 2005 and the Spring of 2006, the site was rebuilt
at the Humanities Computing and Media
Centre
(HCMC) at the University of Victoria by David Badke. The rebuilt web site
includes an all-new database and search engine that allows the data to be searched
in several ways across all available years.
In 2011, the site was enlarged and revised with the assistance of HCMC programmer/consultant Jamie Nay.
