>From all descriptions, plone seems pretty good. I think it beats the ms cms buzzword du jour - share point. I'm genuinely curious in how you guys are using it; i.e. context, organization, how much effort it took to set up. How software such as this is used is as important as why it is used. I'm looking to find a great excuse to sidestep sharepoint, which I find lacking and extremely annoying.
Personally, I've played with plone but have not had a chance to really use it formally. In the past, I mostly dealt with Zope sites and applications. As John said, Xinco looks to be worth looking at too. On Nov 20, 2007 3:08 PM, Tim Fournet <tfournet at tfour.net> wrote: > We're using Plone right now as kind of a documentation repository.
