In that case you do back office one weekend, the web page the next.
Jeeez. Won't Sprint pay its IT people overtime if necessary?

Now I'm guessing, but we're under a deadline. Among the things being
setup is WLNP functions. They were installed long ago, now they're
going into production. All that needs to be tested before Nov 24th to
make sure it's implemented correctly. Plus, some of the backoffice
systems may be setup in a way that they expect the web functions to be
there.

Duh, I think the engineers making the network work and the programmers
are in different departments than the Webmasters in Marketing that do
your web site.
