The information system for Geneva courts of law was written in Cobol about 20 years ago. A complete rewrite in modern technology, namely Perl/Catalyst, is under way. The project is mission-critical, runs over several years, involves about 20 people, and has strong deadlines to meet because of major changes in justice organization in Switzerland.
