Ah, understood. That'll be valuable information and I'm looking forward to it. It's absolutely pertinent to the site I'm now developing.

Oh?! That sounds very promising. Is there a delivery window yet
for eZ 4? I'll be starting a project about mid-summer that will require
some of the things I've mentioned in this thread. If possible I'd like to
plop an establised CMS mechanism "on top" to handle design and such,
rather than build everything from scratch. eZ of course would be first
choice if it had the capability. But I'm worried about limiting the growth of the product, just becuase I was after a quick and dirty first launch. Andy
