Request for space on the WHOI WWW Server

WHOI Home Page Builder
The Home Page Builder is a self-service Web application that allows each member of the WHOI community to create and modify a basic site containing contact information, research interests, photographs, a resume, and lists of ongoing projects.

More advanced WHOI users can also request space on the WHOI WWW server for developing websites for labs, departments, service groups, projects or for personal pages. Users must follow the guidelines defined in the WHOInet Acceptable Use Policy.
