I can deliver 'political' reasons for not using vignette - but no technical reasons, as I don't know, what you actually want to do.
no technical reasons for _not_ using vignette yet...i don't know anything about vignette. It's about building a portal. For which the CMF seems to be a good choice in my eyes...
Correct - but a portal normally is a frontend to various other systems. There could be technical reasons _for_ Vignette because of its capabilities in integrating these 'backend'-systems. It would be interesting to find out, whether V5 or V6 are going to be used. V5 is basically a tcl interpreter with a few templates and daemons for caching and delivery - _everything_ else needs to be adapted or developed. The business model behind V5 is: selling an alpha-product with an impressive price tag to a customer and then selling consulting, integration and training with an equally considerable price tag afterwards. V6 seems to be Java based, bringing it nearer to the J2EE-Applicationserver-Enterprise-Hype-Hot-Spot. Never worked with it - only read a few magazine articles. by Töns -- There is no safe distance.
