texte = I'm bidding on a job for an org and have a phone interview tomorrow. They are coming away from a php website that was abandoned by the previous (volunteer) web developer. There's a person on the committee who does old-school web design, i.e., static sites. She has requested that the new site be periodically archived onto CD and given to them so they don't run into the issue they are now having. I'm sure she imagines the site is something that can just be opened in Dreamweaver and updated, or something. Anyway, what is the accepted practice for this type of request? Give them the WebDNA pages as is, encrypt parts of it, tell them this isn't how it's done... what? I generally assure people that I have a whole team (you guys!) behind me if the worst would happen, but I understand they need reassurance too.
