ViSOR - at last!

I am proud to say I helped design and code bits of ViSOR (along with quite a few others who I shared a hard working, often drunken time in London with). It has been live a while and answers a lot of the Bichard enquiry points about Police forces not previously sharing information on nasty people, and yet has never been recognised in the press, or by the Home Office - something I've found very frustrating as it works well, has addressed a lot infrastructure problems within police forces, and is liked as a system by the people who actually use it. Try getting them to say anything nice about the pre-historice Police National Computer (PNC) and you'll she why we are so proud of ViSOR.

Anyway, recognition of a superb system at last:
