We've been using Aegir in production since the day it
was born. There are some annoyances for the developers
(in the page-element inheritance handling in 1.0.1),
but the content production should be ok AFAIK.

In 1.0.3 there have been other inconsistencies like
JS errors in topic/article sorting etc. which makes
it a worse choice for content production than 1.0.1, IMHO.

Since you have to convert the content anyways (or re-input it
by hand!), I'd go with importing Aegir, MidCOM Template and
checkout FS-MidCOM. Then all you need to do is to use the nnb2midcom
to convert topic trees. We expect you have all content in topic/article
trees under a single topic. If this is not the case, use Aegir's
MOVE command to put all content of a single site under one topic
and then run nnb2midcom.

This done, all you need to do is to create a new host record
for your site. Create it with a blank template, but after creation
change the ROOT PAGE to "MidCOM Template Site (shared)".
This way you can easily keep your sites up-to-date just by
importing new versions of the MidCOM Template.

Obviously you should try this out with a testing environment
so that you won't mess your current sites.

After 1.5 years of MidCOM-only site building, I can say it's
definitely far superior to oldskool Midgard site building. ;)
