Hello, We started a non-profit this past fall with the mission of bringing high quality news and information from around the web to the public, and are seeking proposals from vendors interested in developing the site.
Besides placing emphasis on accuracy, fairness, depth and context in the stories we include, the non-profit will be oriented towards making the world a better place by focusing on important topics and constructive themes. We aim to attract a large audience over time, and think the site will be a feather in the cap of whichever company develops it. We are interested in an open source solution - either CMS or portal, and think MMBase might be a good fit for our needs. For more information on the project, please go to this link - http://dailys.info/ - where you will find the RFP, front-page mockup and related files. Prior to preparing a proposal, we think it would make sense to let us know in several paragraphs (or more) how the approach you�re thinking of would handle our layout and workflow needs (see the RFP sections on Collecting and Managing Content and Editing/Publishing, plus the Layout Options file) - or how the CMS might be customized to handle those needs. A link to your website - or basic information like skills, experience and portfolio - would also be helpful. That way we can let you know if we think it makes sense to submit a proposal and proceed accordingly. We will be accepting proposals until at least the end of June 26, and might be able to wait longer if you need more time. Sincerely, Peter Dunn contact (at) dailys.info 25 Stearns Rd.
