yes, it does.

that would require a scheduling library (which we will probably get from
elsewhere) and a bit of code that would generate page definitions.

I believe there will be a need "in general" for something that can
dynamically generate page defs based on some stuff like time, or the user's
location, etc etc.

Also, as far as CMS, the EntityManager and related infrastructure will make
it quite simple to deal with articles and other 'content objects'.

best,
