Yes, the work will be:
* Faster: If the XML is in a good format, a bit of web design
magic can actually make it faster than it is currently (right
now we use a table heavy design, I am trying to fix that)
* More maintainable: Even if we don't get our new corcompare tool,
this will be easier for Miguel. Right now, to update the page he
has to 1) boot to windows 2) run the current tool 3) transfer
the output to his Linux box 4) run the current make file 5)
transfer. With the transform on the web server he can 1) boot to
windows 2) run tool 3) transfer. I have talked to him, and this
is very important to him.
Remember, by "dynamic" I do *not* mean that the files are transformed on
each request. I am planning on caching the results. But since the
transform is taking place on the server, I don't want to take up gobs of
unnecessary CPU time.
