Have you heard good things about the Plone open-source Content Management System (CMS) and Zope, the underlying framework? You're looking at a Plone / Zope website now.
Plone:
- Is easy to learn and use
- Facilitates team-based development efforts
- Is internationally popular - more than 50 languages are supported
- Is standards based - US Section 508, XHTML & CSS, W3C'a AA Rated for Accessibility
- Is extensible - with more than 300 add-on products
- Is open-source and GPL licensed
Plone and Zope have become increasingly popular as users realize how easy it is to develop a website where multiple people can all work together simultaneously from disparate locations, guided through a process which flows content from writers and creators to reviewers and to eventual publication. No workstation software other than a browser is required to develop and manage Plone websites.
