Matthew,
I'm doing what I have been asked to do.
I did suggest some 2-3 years ago adding an on-line version of CoE but my suggestion was met with little enthusiasm.
I hope that CoM and CoE can co-exist, and, together meet different needs and different end users.
Clearly, an on-line offering is at least a more scalable solution than a paper-based one but, nonetheless, each have their merits.
Hopefully, ECF office intervention will be minimal and I will endeavour to make CoM as stand-alone and robust as I possibly can. I'm sure most schools possess a credit card and would rather use that than write out a cheque. We'll see I suppose.
I'm aware of schools problems with allowing the use of funky firewall ports as I've seen previous on-line projects for schools fail because of firewall problems. I will only be using TCP/IP ports 80 & 443.
J.
