I'm currently working on a CMS with cake....but probably not a very large scale one. At least initially. It will simply be for smaller sites.
One feature will be integration with Flash actually and that's already setup....in other words you can manage the content of a site both the HTML content and all the text/images within Flash. A series of technologies/scripts/languages/methods have been used to create this. The CMS will never be free, it's work for my company, but may be sold in the future. That is, at least, when it's done. I think most people can get away using a CMS out there. There are already so many good ones, it's almost useless to go and make a new one...unless you have a very specific need and at that point, you'll probably be one of the only users of your CMS. What I do want to work on though (whenever I get the chance) is a CakePHP version of Basecamp because I have some very strong ideas for improvement there. Basecamp has been really successful but I think it was more or less a demo for RoR and not a meant as a very strong and useful application that meets the needs of it's users....in other words it falls short in too many areas and there's nothing being done about it. Anyway, I'm always looking, I hope someone else out there does create a large scale CMS with CakePHP --- I think it would be very good. The MVC model is great and even Joomla is changing to one. -Tom On Feb 14, 8:49 am, "Samuel DeVore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Also it seems that everyone and their brother seems to think that it > is a good idea to open a new project in CakeForge that is a CMS.
