What timing for this story...

I hadn't realized that this conference was coming up, but I've been
shopping this month for such a system myself, and I'm tentatively picking
WebGUI.

There's some fuss about the "NDA"-ness of the documentation licensing and
whether that's a) ethical for GPL'd code and b) productive, but I'm
opening a dialogue on it, anyway.

It's pretty damned spiffy looking, and the company that produced it (Plain
Black Software) had the sense to hire a designer for it's demo website...
which is something almost none of the other OCMS's that I've seen have
done. And it makes a difference...

...and it turns out that I misunderstood the situation -- whyinhell would I believe a *Slashdot* poster? :-)

The restrictions really do amount mostly to copyright, they're just phrased poorly.

My public apologies to JT and the PlainBlack crowd for muddying the water further.
