I didn't mean to start any trouble.
I may have seem a little heated, but it felt like a very quick negative
response towards my idea.
I have no personal agenda or gripes. I didn't mean to put down your MidGard
project, I am sure it probably fits the bill.
Whether there is a cmf.php.net domain or another site makes no difference to
me.
I just have some CMF ideas (from my experience with other CMF software
products) that I wanted to share and collaborate to bring PHP into this form
of development.
Being an IA I obviously have my own perspectives and points of view I would
like to contribute and collaborate.
That's really it.
I want to collaborate with PHP developers to build a solid CMF on pure PHP
that can easily be equal to or better than the CMF by Zope
(http://cmf.zope.org).
PS the PHP CMF standard (my suggestion) does not have to be XPC as is. I
have built and designed a conceptual framework. What code is used to
implement these ideas do not have to necessarily be mine.
The point I am trying to make is that there are options, many options and if
there are developers who like this idea please let me know.
PPS if you missed the "idea" (CMF conceptual framework) please visit
