Thankyou!

Yes, but test it first!

Yes... time & client work permitting.

Docs (and lack thereof) being one of my major annoyances with the Zope
world, it's something I'd be *very* happy to improve. Of course, the fun
bit is that I need to understand it first...

Given my work (day job: http://www-5.ibm.com/services/uk/services/bcs.html
with an eCRM/content management specialism), I'd be particularly happy to
improve:
http://plone.org/development/current/projects/BusinessSpeak

While as I say, I can't see Plone replacing Vignette for an enterprise
consumer-facing site, I've seen lots of projects with major where it could
fill a role as a temporary team collaboration space.

Cheers
Martin
