 Hi Sigurd,

Thanks for the suggestion. Thanks also to the others who posted. I guess my
shortlist is now:

* Drupal  - seems to have modules to do everything I want, but I'm a little
daunted by the complexity.
* Expression engine - looks sweet, the proprietary aspect is a downside.
I've posted some questions on the forums, and will see how quick/helpful the
responses are.
* Silverstripe - I like the MVC framework, and the backend interface is
nice. I'm a little worried about how it will handle large amounts of content
- we have an archive of roughly 10,000 posts to add, and I expect our
writers to add 3 - 4 posts a day to the system. How does the back end handle
this kind of volume?
* Textpattern - I don't really know anything about this - looking forward to
investigating.


Thanks again for your suggestions.

Cheers,

Phil
