Single-Page ISM in HTML

Published: 2014-05-05, Views 578

So today I finished fixing up a whole heap of transcription errors between the released PDF and my ISM2014-02 data import (cheers to the ISM-Beta Guys); and for funzies I've pushed out three of the static HTML versions of the ISM data that I have been playing around with.

So as promised, I have been working at transcribing the full ISM2014-Draft PDF with all 933 Controls into my project. 128 of these controls were changed according to ASD, however they forgot to update one control they changed, so it's actually 129.
