I suppose the first question is: why not use Collage, which AFAIK
fulfills the same use-case, already works with Plone 4, and has
active
contributors (and even add-ons!)
Please, all the people with technology skills and long Plone
experience, try
using Deco instead of these previous-generation-products
(regardless of them
being of good or bad quality).
If everyone waits around for Deco to be finished and cleanly
integrated in
Plone before they start testing it, it won't make it into Plone 5
because it
didn't get enough attention before.
If nothing else, just spend 2 hours to test if it is close and what
would be
needed for it to fullfil your needs. Your comments are valuable.
+1000. Deco needs experienced people to pound on it. :-) That
said, it probably also needs a "getting started with Deco" document
that is approachable for intermediate Plone integrators (hint hint,
Deco team!).
Is it stable enough to put on a production site? We're just about to
put up a new pretaweb.com and I would have loved to use deco to layout
our frontpage. Instead we used collective.portletpage and diazo for
the frontpage layout. (btw although collage is flexible it's a
confusing UI for most clients). I did consider deco but thought that
it might involve upgrade pain if I include it at this stage but if you
guys think it's stable enough I'll use it.
btw, it's very straight forward to use as long remember you have to
the first go to dexterity control panel and create a new content type
and add the "layout support" behaviour before can use deco. The rest
is fairly intuitive.
Also the last time I tried folderish content type's were working.
