Sure.

However, you must understand

  *  what Zope can do for you,

  *  what services should be provided to your users,

  *  what services are provided by your DMS

  *  how to fill the gap between the previous two points.


I once used Zope to provide a Web interface for a proprietary
multi-media database. It took about 1 week of work.

 Hi all,

 We have our own proprietary Document Management Product. Lot of our
 clients have their valuable data (images, web-pages, other documents)
 in our repository (powered by our DM product). Now is there a way we
 can incorporate CMS facilities using Zope where the users can make
 web-sites using the content from our DMS.
 If anybody has some idea, please discuss it. I can mail other
 relavant details.
Well, that depends how you can access the DMS data.
(proprietary protocol, xml-rpc, corba, etc.)

Depending upon intend you can then build proxy objects for Zope.

The question remains why you want to do this. Zope seems quite capable to do 
custom document management (when setup rightly). And if you go the 
proprietary way with the document management, you should be also capable to 
do some proprietary CMS solution :)

We can access the DMS using our own XML APIs, so its like if we can build
some kind of an interface so that the users can add content from our DMS,
then it would be done.

We need that because some of our repositories (clients) have huge amount of
data in our DMS and they want to utilize that, so i was just thinking of
using Zope there.
