Communications Research Centre Canada (CRC), an Agency of Industry Canada, is the Government of Canada's primary laboratory for research and development in advanced telecommunications. The CRC Web Site was originally built on a ColdFusion-based content management system designed by Kristian Lance in 1998, which was rewritten in PHP a couple of years later. CRC's main Drupal 4.7 site was launched on June 21, 2006, making it the first Government of Canada web site to be based on the Drupal CMS, as well as one of the first to be powered entirely by Open Source Software. By July, 2006 all remaining internal and external web sites had been migrated to Drupal. The upgrade of all CRC web sites to Drupal 5.x was completed in August 2007, and the upgrade to Drupal 6.x. is currently underway.
