Tony,
I've used it a while back. Plone is a powerful and big system. It is
entirely a CMS, which, if that's what you're interested in (ala Drupal,
etc...) then it might be right for you. It is written on top of Zope (big
python framework) and is built in a manner where you kinda have to adopt an
all-or-nothing approach to it. Cost of entry is a big higher than what you
might expect but it is well written, has gobs of powerful features, and
there are some very large complex systems based on Plone.
All that said, taking on Zope was not really in the cards for me. It was
quite innovated in its day but is kindof heavy handed compared to other
python frameworks. I understand Zope3 is more refactored and I expect Plone
has been ported to it by now but I've not had a pure CMS situation in which
to try it out yet. My requirements are always *some other major
functionality* + a CMS so other frameworks like Django have been more
appropriate for us.
Frankly, until recently there has been almost zero python in Thailand so
I don't expect you'll find too many Plone devs but there are probably a few
who have independently discovered/adopted it somewhere out there.
best of luck,
