Wow!  Great work, Bergie.   Really nice clean design, excellent layout, and I
love the "view source" feature.  I assume this is the beta test version of the
new Midgard Project homepage?

A couple of questions about version 2.0.

1.  Do you plan any revision control?   It shouldn't be too hard to pass the
content to RCS when saving a page, and check it out from the ,v file when you
click modify.   I might have a go at coding this.  Does anyone have any
preferences for a versioning system--for example, is there any way of doing
versioning with the MySQL directly?

2.  Should we define some form of API or module integration so that we can easily
adapt some powerful open-source products into the Midgard framework, e.g., I'd
like to see phpMyAdmin a part of the Admin pages, and PHPLib would also be
excellent.  This is less of a technical question than a philosophical question --
i.e., should we try to add functionality to Midgard by reinventing the wheel, or
just add existing tools, or leave the core unchanged and let developers make
their own choices about the tools they wish to use with it?

3.  I've long felt that Midgard needed some form of integrated page documentation
system, so that each page built can also be documented.  I created this for one
of our Midgar-based sites, to make it easier for users to know what and how to
change.

4.  A small change -- allow viewing of the final page with a click on the
associatedadmin page.

Anyway, have fun in Paris and thanks for the great work!

P.S.  Don't tell too many people, but Lanifex hopes to announce two major
European Web portals using Midgard this summer!
