Certainly it would be a good battery for Webware have a simple CMS kit that would be easy to set up for small sites (without a lot of unused junk to get in the way) but hopefully scalable for larger sites or expanding sites. I would like to see a CMS that handles standard HTML documents or at least standard HTML document bodies. I could use this in a couple projects, although none that's urgent to start right away. The thing is, when ppl already know HTML, or you're dealing with outside authors that have already written an HTML article, it's easier to use that as your source rather than insisting on some "pure" XML or wiki format. Yes, it causes complications for converting the article body to another format later... *IF* that ever becomes an issue for the particular application. Maybe it won't. A flexible CMS with a configuration option to accept only HTML format, or only wiki format, or the author's choice, or all in one document, would be the best. It would also help to have an option of "accept the source format without conversion and serve it as is without touching its internal structure" alongside "convert the source document to an in-between format so it's easy to reconvert into any output format." -- -Mike (Iron) Orr, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (if mail problems: [EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://iron.cx/ English * Esperanto * Russkiy * Deutsch * Espan~ol _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
