Description (last modified by Mike Dewhirst)

Review and possibly redefine what a single year means when used to label an archived Introduction.

The current_year() method returns the current AICIS year no matter what the date happens to be. AICIS year for 5 September 2022 is actually 2023. It remains that way up to and including 31 August 2023.

On screen, the current year might be confusing when looking at previous year archived introductions.
The choices are:

  • omit the current year altogether because each archived intro includes in its name the actual AICIS year
  • display the current year anyway

We will try the latter approach and keep this ticket open pending feedback from users.

So far this ticket only adjusts the wording around the current year as follows ...

Archived introductions (current year is 2023)

... which should clarify things.
