Midgard users,
I found out about midgard while searching for information on developing a
web publishing system for http://www.tacomacitypaper.com
Right now I am exploring commercial options with either Dispatch -
http://www.dispatch.net which is geared toward small, independent papers &
E-grail from http://www.guiworks.com which is based on open-source
standards, but provides the software as a hosted-application.
Currently the tacomacitypaper.com site is being hosed on UnixBSD running
Apache & has PHP/MySQL enabled. So this server would be capable of running
Midgard. I do have a few questions, mostly newbie questions, so if you like
you can respond off-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Questions,
Given that I have no programming skills & intermediate HTML skills, how
complicated would it be to install Midgard & get things working in a short
time?
Are there any media or other organizations in the US using this system?
How difficult would it be to transfer my current site (built using
Dreamweaver on Macintosh) to Midgard?
What kind support is available from the Midgard community?
Once up and running how difficult is it for editorial staff to update
content?
How does Midgard compare to commercial products? (such as those I mentioned)
What other alternatives are available?
I may have future questions. I'm tasked to give my managers options for our
website so the site can be more dynamic, but the fact I'm on almost zero
budget limits my options, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Corbin Harris
