Hi all,
I just rediscovered Justin's test Plone site (which wasn't working well
when I tried it before). Despite is being only there for testing it now
seems to have nearly 500 users and appears to work quite well now.
The only problems I found are:
- The calendar on the right which seemed to have no purpose other than
to make site indexers get in a mess.
- I think the user 'levels' need work. At present, everyone seems to be
a member (even Justin) and able to edit anything, even the site
configuration. I think if this site were to be used for techdocs
permanently, normal users should not be able to add or edit documents
(only add comments etc), with higher lever users being able to create
and edit documents with higher still managing the site config etc.
What do the rest of you think about this site?
Regards, Dave.

And one other thing, based on the requirements of some of our community
writers; there needs to be some ability to add "locked" content. For
example, if I republish my article from Linux Magazine (due out in 2 weeks,
yah!) it has to go up as "locked" content with a shared copyright. I can't
have people modifying it per my agreement with Linux Magazine.
Also, most mature Wiki systems allow user comments. This is a non-issue.

Justin's and my problem with Plone was that is was intolerably slow on updates
and administrative interfaces; some of the admin screens took over a minute
just to load. And this was with just him, me & Elein on it.
Also, the plone "look" says "Plone" not "PostgreSQL". However, if it gets
something up and running in a hurry, I can certainly live with that.
If we've got it performing better now, it's worth a 2nd look.

The only really noticable speed issues I saw whilst playing were local
network issues. I editted one page and it certainly wasn't noticably
slower than our other php admin interface.

I think so. It looks nice, and seems quite usable and maintainable. Like
I said, the only real issues I noticed were the lack of access controls
(users should not be able to modify config nor (imho) content) and the
seemingly useless calendar (is that some kind of 'see this folder how it
was on xx-xx-xxxx' control?)
Regards, Dave.

OK. Do we want to give it a try? I would eliminate one item I've been
procrastinating on for some time, and I'd be happy to relieve Robert of any
Techdocs maint based on Plone.

'k, is this replacing techdocs, or just part of techdocs?

If we're going to do it, we need to replace the whole thing IMO.
