After R743,644.95, Digitech is broken - SITA redesigned it, used "admin" for password

[Jan]

South Africa's R740,000 app website uses R950 template and "admin" for password

Digitech, the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies’ “digital products portal”, was built using the $49 (R957) Martis theme for Drupal.

An eagle-eyed MyBroadband forum member and our in-house engineer identified the Drupal template.

What is the purpose of publishing MSM article after MSM article that exposes ANC looting and corruption, without even mentioning the ANC directly?

Am I missing something?

It may seem logical, but organs of state and state-owned enterprises are not directly linked to the ruling ANC or any other party. They are seen as independent, with Parliament and the Departments/boards with oversight powers.

It shows though that even the IT SOE can't judge properly what quality they are "buying". What happened to building our own, and doing things in-house because we have a large consolidated IT agency to serve all departments? I taught myself Drupal so I know it is really not complicated. It is way simpler than most client/server application systems. Government should have standardised their own templates to bring DOWN the cost of doing websites for departments.

Reminder: Anybody harping on "MSM is bad" is a stuck record reciting Nazi propaganda

Aren't they just a bunch of smarty pants

Ok, but how else do you pocket R742 694,95?

This is nothing, E-Tshwane is down, they can't process payments anymore through their website. You get a lovely error, good luck tell them it's broken, SPoke to the MMC MEC Support and they all sitting there going Eish.
