Hi, [For those of you who don't remember what this is about: MT: MovableType, WP: WordPress]

So, either you actually do it in MT or wait. If you wait, hopefully someone else will do it. There is a reasonable chance that this someone will use WP. Smearing a CMS that is not your favorite is not something I personally like reading. I have better things to do. So let's get into practical details: Can you provide an example implementation with MovableType? * How much customization will it need? * What will be the process of upgrading it while still preserving your customization? * Is the Debian package movabletype-opensource good enough to avoid the need of a separate installation? - Is it well-maintained? I suspect the sysadmins would prefer using it unless there is a solid technical reason not to do so. * MT is installed as a CGI script. Is the performance good enough? (And to counter one obvious point: we don't need all the potential volunteer base to know how to maintain our CMS. We need enough of them to know how to. And we need the maintinance to be simple enough.) If you need my little help to provide simple review of your prpposed system from the point of view of someone familiar enough with Perl, I'd be glad to help. Folks, we have a whole nuclear power-plant^W^Wsite to build. So let's we've spent enough time discussing the bike shed. -- Tzafrir Cohen | [email protected] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [email protected] | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend _______________________________________________ Discussions mailing list [email protected] http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discussions
