Hello,
I am currently researching options for Content Management applications, and am interested in Midgard. I have read through the FAQ section, but was unable to find a few answers I am looking for, and was wondering if you could field a few more. (I certainly dont expect you to do my homework for me, so if I have missed an area where I can find answers to these questions, please direct me there.) Below are a list of requirements my company has set in order of importance when considering a CM system, I have answered some (in blue) and hope that you can correct me if I am wrong, and fill in any missing spaces. 1. Must integrate with a J2EE compliant application Server (Yes) 2. Must allow content contributors to provide website content without developer intervention by separating content from presentation (XML/XSL) (yes) 3. Must be able to support mixed production environments (Solaris, HPUX) (Yes?) 4. Must be able to manage content from relational databases and remote file systems 5. Should be able to manage content contained in our E-Com store and product catalog 6. Must follow open standards with no proprietary, platform or vendor dependence. (Yes) 7. The content database must be accessible outside the scope of the CM tools(no proprietary database) 8. Must provide XML/Java APIs for developer use and interaction with the CM system (No) 9. Must provide for scheduling launch / expiration of content 10. Should be able to provide e-mail based notifications and approvals throughout customizable workflows 11. Must either provide integrated versioning capabilities or be able to interface with existing SCM (Source Code Management) systems (i.e. CVS, VSS, MKS) 13. Should be able to integrate with existing development methodologies and procedures 14. Should implement roles-based (NT) security 15. Should have little or no impact on performance 16. Would like to be able to provide a step-by-step list of each task a user must complete (Workflow Guide) 17. Style sheet Driven Content Editor Again, I understand that as open source, there is no Customer Service or any reason to reply other than the kindness of your heart, so any information at all would be greatly appreciated.
