Hi Hassan, Semantics, semantics. Contribute is used for client-side WYSIWYG content publishing across an enterprise. It may not fit with the current browser-based varietals currently in abundance but it is still a system used to manage content, albeit one which is dependent on Dreamwever templates.

Contribute is *not* a "CMS" -- it's a GUI editor designed for DreamWeaver-developed pages. You allow end users to edit parts of the page using: <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="mainContent" --> Have at it! <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> It does not, in my experience, work well with other than fairly basic CSS (IE-positioning bugs can make it impossible to select text and hence edit). The WYSIWYG aspect also doesn't work particularly well when parts of the page are incorporated through includes. This is based on Contribute 1 and 2; I have no experience with v3, and I don't use DreamWeaver at all...
