Zope is perfect for what you want to do, the only draw back is the learning curve can be steep. to flatten it a bit I would suggest learning the key points of python first then most of the wierdness of zope will go away. My two cents Dan Erik Hjelmås wrote:
Hi,
forgive me if this is inappropriate (since I've just joined the list and briefly browsed the archive):
Im in a working group with the purpose of suggesting a solution for intranet and internet for a college with 150 employees and 1500 students
we are primarely looking for the following functionality:
intranet: - calender (outlook type thing) - booking (meeting room, classroms, etc) - news publishing - sharing documents - email program - each employee should easily be able to manage his/her homepage and course pages - forms
internet: - website search - forms (online application forms) + some of the same features as the intranet
our current website is at www.hig.no and not very functional.
The rest of my group is focused on selecting a commercial solution, which is very expensive, so Im trying to figure out if Zope, ezPublish or some other open source system is worth looking in to. Unfortunately, I dont have the time to download and try things out myself.
Any thoughts, ideas and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
