Hi Marc,

Without going into any compromising detail, I'd be interested to know a bit about the functional scope of the back-end for the Tropicana site? I'm just curious to know what level of functionality you're achieving in these timescales!

Regards,

Alex

I can't go into too much detail but the two sites together were about  
15 days of my time so far. There is some functional overlap. There  
was a fair amount of Grails bug finding / feature contrib / bleeding  
edge pain which made this much longer than it would be now.

I'm only talking about my part here - the Grails back end. We have  
other developers working on the designs, CSS, XHTML etc. and I spent  
extra time configuring the servers, admin etc.
