I'm also looking at this, but with some slightly more advanced wants: 1. Code versioning. a. When people make changes to the test environment, it should version their code. b. When moving the code from test to production, it should do a versioning backup for rollback.
2. Server permission matching. A directory is permission locked on the test server. The directory doesn't even exist yet on the production server. When the site/section/page is migrated to the production server the directory is created and permissions set. 3. Control panel interface. It would be great if there was a control panel for developer-admins (as opposed to server-admins) could forward migrate the site/section/pages or do a rollback. A web-based interface for this would be good. Has anyone built/bought anything like this? I'm looking at parts from things like VSS, various CMS systems, and even Enterprise systems like Interwoven. They all seem to do some of it, but I haven't seen anything that does enough AND plays nicely with ColdFusion. Any thoughts?
