Hi Marko & Andreas, all

Frank would You be so kind and answer to the post of Andreas or tell me
why you can't answer?

I apologize for the delay in my answer.

But that was before the doc project used the wiki at all. I agree
that Issuezilla+website was very inconvenient and inefficient.

Everyone should know that I am a strong advocate of joining the
docs forces of doc.oo.o and oooauthors. It would certainly be a
win for all of us, not least for the user.

I know that you and Andreas are strong advocates of a plone
based solution for multi-language documentation maintenance.
I have been discussing this with Andreas several times.

Let me emphasize that I am not an opponent of a plone
based solution, and I am in fact in favor of a solution that
offers more CMS functionality than the current wiki solution.

However, I think that in the current situation it would be better
to find a solution for the wiki because that is the platform
that is available on oo.o. Given the hint from lepennuisic,
it looks like it would be possible to implement something
lightweight very easily (even without having to reorganize the
wiki structure for the localized content, or without having
to have all structures to be the same).

If we really want to implement a long term solution for
maintaining a multilingual content management for documentation
(and I think we should), I would then like to work with all of
you at doc.oo.o and the NLC to set up a catalog of requirements,
and after that look for a solution.

Plone will certainly be one of the possible solutions
(especially given the fact that there is already considerable
expertise in the community), but may not be the only
candidate.

Before switching to another solution (that is currently
not supported inside the OOo domain) I would suggest to
be clear about all requirements.

I created the following page to collect requirements
and suggestions for tools to use:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/CMS_Evaluation

After we have settled the requirements we can go ahead
and look at the suggested tools how well they fit and
eventually select one for implementation.

Let me know what you think
Frank
