Hi Алексей Лапуста
No problem about your English, mine is not better either :-)
First of all, yes, Magnolia has a Russian language-file. So you can have
Magnolia's GUI also in Russian. So a good start!
But before selecting a CMS, you have to look into the projects you will
be doing. There are many good CMS out there, so you want to choose a CMS
with which you can achieve your project goals "best" (meaning,
fast-in-time, user-friendly, re-usable code, etc.). That's the reason
why Magnolia has been selected more than 200'000 times in the last view
months! It's not because it's open source and it's not becuase of the
user-friendly GUI. It's because of the underlaying content storage
technology!
If you have been using Database driven CMS (like Typo3), you know into
what hassle you run into when you start changing tables or
functionality. That's why the founders of the award-winning CMS
"Communiqué" have chosen a different aproach: Content is written into a
"Content Repository" rather than into a data source. The huge world-wide
success of this technology was the motivation for Day Software to
standardize this technology. Check out the standardisation request "JSR
170". In fact, I would recommend you to spend a lot of time
understanding that technology. It will be as revolutionary to the
IT-market as RDBMS were many years ago!
Next to the open source reference-implementation "Jackrabbit", you can
also buy a sophisticated commercial version of a JSR 170 compliant
"Content Repository based on Java Technology". Check http://www.day.com
and look for "CRX".
So the reason to choose Magnolia is:
- State-of-the-art, JSR 170 compliant, "Content Repository based on Java
Technology"
- User-friendly GUI
- Open source
Magnolias JSR 170 compliant content repository allows you to write your
web application and never bothering yourself about where the content is
stored. The repository takes care of writing and reading content. So
when you change data source (e.g. from FS to XML or RDBMS), you
re-configure (easily) your repository, done! Furthermore the
repository-API offers you services like Versioning, Access-Control,
Fulltext-Search and more! Which RDBMS can offer you that?
The important thing is that you understand the Content Repository
technology. Once you are familiar with that, you will be amazed how
powerful the repository is!
And to save you time figuring out how all the bits and pieces fit
together: Join a "Magnolia Developer Training"! Every month there is a
class in either Europe or USA. You can get more information on
http://www.magnolia.info/en/magnolia/services/training.html.
Hope this helps you make your decisions easy :-)
Cheers

Everybody hi!
It there eny russian language pack for Magnolia? What about modules,
some simple modules like polls, forum & so on... I've found no
modules(
I looked through lot of Java-based CMS. First I've stopped on the
OpenCms - looks like to be a very popular one. But your user-friendly
interface is very impressive. I've also met Vertical Site - just what
I want... But it's not free & costs a lot. Really I want something
like Typo3 but in Java.
P.S. Sorry for mu stupid questions & for my bad English (I from Russia).
