Hi,

Thank you for your suggestions.

We had Michael Bernstein aboard last meeting (24/4), and he gave a
nice review of Zope, also mentioning Plone and demonstrating some
online site management.

It all seems very nice, but unfortunately our current problem is
generating contents, not how to manage it.
With the little time I have, I barely manage to organize the meetings.
Shlomi created the original static contents you show in your demo, but
he's probably busy enough as it is with other FOSS related activity
(plus we all know he's really a perl-monger spy ;-) ).

Apart from us there's a handful of others adding a few words on the
wiki here and there (mainly related to the meetings and subjects for
talks), I don't think any of them can spend enough time to redesign
the site (e.g. - I made
http://www.python.org.il/mediawiki/index.php/Python-IL_Logo_Contest ,
but only one other person posted a suggetion, and only Shlomi
expressed any opinion at all).

Of course, if you volunteer to be our site manager, I'll be thrilled.
But please be advised that unless you come up with a new server to
host us, there's not much chance to install Plone or Zope on the
current one. The current host (eskimo.iglu.org.il) is a Pentium3
serving several FOSS sites and mailing lists, and is recently
suffering from memory problems (lately there was talk about buying
more memory - but most probably we'd still be far from the
server-recommendations ).

  Regards,
         Amit
