[Zope-CMF] To CMF or not to CMF

Just a little comment. The pre-built writers interface provided by CMF is
worthless for people who are not programmers. My experience is that it
confuses the heck out of them. The best you can say is that it works, not
that it's useful for non-programmer types. Because it works it's easier to
modify then trying to do the whole thing yourself. I am busy providing a
custom interface to add news and events for a site I'm developing using CMF.
