Hi all,<br><br>For a few weeks now, a few of us have been tossing around (on blogs and in IRC) the idea of writing a simple CMS in Grok. The goal is to keep the system simple, focusing on improving usability with subsequent releases instead of improved functionality. To keep ourselves honest, we've set out with the goal of providing a migration path from the CMS to Plone; we figure that that will be so difficult that it will make us think twice about adding many features.
<br><br>With these few goals in place, I'd like to ask the community for comments and advice. I've set up a project page on OpenPlans that details what thinking has been done on the project, and there's an IRC channel to discuss it if chat's your thing. Any advice is appreciated, and as things develop, if anyone thinks they'd be interested in working on such a project (planning, code, docs, design, anything really), that would be wonderful. This is explicitly an open source project, and so the code will be licensed under an OSI license (ZPL
2.1 is my current plan) and in a public repository.<br><br>Project Page: <a href="http://www.openplans.org/projects/concave/">http://www.openplans.org/projects/concave/</a><br>IRC (freenode): #concave<br><br>Thanks for your time,
