Looks very plone-ish indeed - hoping it's only keeping the right features from Plone -, not tried it so far, and I'd be interested to hear about it too. FWIW, we did a first website with django-cms recently, and my feelings about it are a bit mixed. The good points first : it provided most of the required features OOTB, seems robust enough (the site is live for more than one month now and no problem so far), the fellow co-worker that did most of the job managed to deliver almost in time (<g>) with zero prior experience with Django nor Python and we could manage to plug the few missing features without much pain nor dirty hack. OTHO, I do find the whole design quite complex (even if I have enough experience with various CMS apps to understand why it has to be so), and I would have hard time scripting it if needed (I mean things like adding or removing whole pages or the like), and there are some of the things we did that I'm not even sure how and why they do work (short deadline so no time to dig in the relevant code parts), which makes me feel rather uncomfortable as it could stop working any other day and I wouldn't have a clue :( My 2 cents... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
