[Actionchix] Choice of CMS

[Gloria]

I have one question.
If you do end up with Plone, what is your template language of choice?
Thanks,
Gloria

> - ability to have a front page newsfeed with RSS or Atom feeds
> - good support for our designers: ability to apply a skin across the

> - mature codebase

> - ability to manage multiple sites (on different domains) with one

> - ability for people to use their own editor on their own machines and
