I know this topic will almost surely come up at this years Web Managers
Conference
as it has in previous years, but I am interested to know how many
institutions are
using a Content Management System and if so whether they purhased one or
have
developed their own. Also those that aren't are you about to or do you now
see
the need at this stage.
In our case we looked at purchasing a commercial solution but for various
reasons
we have decided to implement or own using PHP. We have produced a prototype
which
athough limited actually works well we are now in the process of developing
the
next version which will build on the prototype but provide a lot more
flexibility
and control and give us a more solid platform with which to develop.
If people want to reply directly to me I will post a summary in a few days.
Many thanks,
Gareth
