That reminds that Webware still needs something like PHPNuke, PostNuke, Slashcode, Midgard,... to give people a point and click content mangement system they can deploy out of the box and contribute Modules for (Mail, Calender, Rating System, Syndication with other sites, Shop, Workflow, ...). We have all pieces for a killer application (Webware, CheetahTemplates, FunFormKit, TaskKit, CanKit,..), but have not done it yet... I'm shure the Webware user community will explode with such a ContentKit. One could use the PostNuke (or PHPNuke) Database structure as a starting point and do the implementation the right way with Python/Webware. There's a reason I use PHPNuke at www.python.de. You can start in 5 Minutes with such a thing. Of course I want so switch, but do not have the time to implement everything myself right now... -- Tom Schwaller [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.python.de _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
