Jed, If you need help I am willing to contribute.
Some suggestions that take into account that you are a programmer: 0. Use as much as possible Free Software. It allows you to scale in terms of costs easily and you can fix it. 1. Stick on PostgreSQL you will find that is powerful even in full text search http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/textsearch.html. 2. Publish RSS feeds on news for third parties. 3. Allow comments by (possibly authenticated) visitors. 4. Integration with twitter, fb and other social networks. 5. Use djvu (djvu.org) for scanned document. 6. Use web2py (http://www.web2py.com) as framework it is easy, productive and robust* * Totally free software, but I warn you I have some stakes on this since I am one of the contributor of this software. Please note that everything I listed is editor (as a program) agnostic. mic 2012/1/13 Jed Rothwell <[email protected]>: > Wolf Fischer <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> I think, what you are looking for, is a Content Management System (CMS), >> e.g. Joomla http://www.joomla.org/, which is free and seems to have a nice >> and big community. > > > Yup.
