Macromedia Contribute is an easy way for any permitted individual to change
permitted parts of normal HTML files through normal FTP transfer or local
network access.

If you want to add approval atop that, then have them work off an internal
staging server, and then you can approve the final secure push live.


For Thomas, you're right, new tools usually evolve rapidly. We're currently
prioritizing which versioning, approval, and security systems are most
important to people. If this matters to you, could you drop a note saying
you need WebDAV to http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/wishform?
Thanks.

That's true. But it's also true that it effectively solves some problems
where people may have previously felt they had to use a CMS. (ie, different
solution spaces, but overlapping problem spaces.)
