POMS Launches Revamped Website

July 19, 2007 -- After almost a year of effort by many people, we're happy to announce that the newly redesigned POMS.org website, which you're looking at right now, has been launched. The new site is based on a web-based content management system that allows a new online editorial board (see below) to manage the website faster and more easily. It is also more technically scalable, which should provide improved responsiveness and up-time at lower operating costs.

However, the launch has not been without its hiccups (we apologize for the downtime); getting the new host to complete our technical setup took a bit longer than we expected. We should be in full production mode by the end of July.

In the meantime, please explore the site, familiarize yourself with the new navigation structure, and try out the search function (upper right on every page). We will be tweaking the menus in the next few months, but layout changes should be minimal. If you have comments or suggestions, please send them to Craig Froehle, Online Editor-in-Chief.

The new POMS.org Online Editorial Board consists of:

Editor-in-Chief: Craig Froehle, University of Cincinnati

Online Editors:
    - Renu Agarwal, Macquarie University
    - Paulo Goncalves, MIT
    - Greg Heim, Texas A&M
    - Changyue Luo, New Mexico Institute of Technology
    - Bo van der Rhee, Nyenrode Business University
