I suspect I have a broader definition of "managed content" than you do. Creating a publishing workflow is managing content. Forcing the use of templates, etc, is managing content. But that just goes to show how broad the term "CMS" can be, that it means so many different things to so many people. http://www.psesd.org/weblogs/cm/archives/2003_09.html Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf Software provides the highest caliber vendor-authorized instruction at our training centers in Washington DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore, Northern Virginia, or on-site at your location.
