Are there particular products you suggest that would be useful to accomplish this. For instance is there a particular product that you use for getting objects down to the file system (ExtFile, LocalFS, Files System Directory View). Would the files then be editable from both the ZMI and the FS or just one. Could we also use one of the ZOPE CVS products or are you strictly using the FS, an external editor, and CVS from the FS. I've used zsyncer in the past and it's worked fairly well and I'm comfortable using it again if necessary. Is there a method for triggering it from the command line. My main concern is that another team will be supporting migration efforts and if they can do it with a script from the command line all the better. Any products to help keep the site content seperate from the code. I've looked into using DBTab to mount an external db but I've seen a few posts with problems using it in plone.

Does anyone have any tips for setting up CMFStaging. I'm just starting to fumble my way through it and I've only found two posts with any real information about setting it up.
Essentially my architecture is this: Three separate machines: DEV QA PROD
"CMFStaging" is not for this use case. Instead, it support DEV, QA and PROD stages for *content* (only) inside a single CMF instance.
We approach your problem like this:
* put everything possible (templates, scripts, products) into file system.
Use CVS to manage these resources. "QA" and "PROD" use CVS to fetch "released" revisions from the CVS repository
* use ZSyncer to sync configuration data in the ZODB from DEV to QA and from QA to PROD.
* ensure a proper separation of content between DEV, QA, and PROD. All have their own content (which must never get mixed). QA occationally gets a fresh copy of PROD's content.
