I cc'ed the pdweb list because I don't know the answer to your question. IOhannes probably does, and he reads that list.

Hello,
I am back on list, so maybe its time to introduce me, it was my silly idea to use Plone/Zope since some years, since I used it in an elaerning archive project http://iaem.at/ and now was busy to update this site to new version, also it was my silly idea to do an pd-list this is now 10 years ago.
Anyhow Plone/Zope can be made simple or complicated, there are nice documents about skinning:
http://plone.org/documentation/tutorial/creating-custom-style
even the whole docu-engine http://plone.org/documentation with doing FAQs, Tutorials, HowTos and Glossary could be used on purdata site, since only needed to be installed, but
Who does the content work oder reviewing of content ?
There are also Forum Products, but anyhow, each item (entry) can be commented like in an forum on the site.
Georg Holzmann is just finishing a streaming product for plone, so audio and videos can be stored file-based and streamed.
another thing is we have ca. 300GB from pd-convention lectures, audios lying on the server, but not usable since nobody did a authoring work for this.
The main resource we need is man power doing the work. The idea using plone was that deligating of sections etc on the site is easy, also a lot of sites use it so it is quite secure.
So please just write on the Wiki http://puredata.org/dev/pd_webwiki/FrontPage your suggestion. I hope I can help realizing this issues in the near future, since anyway we have to update the site to Plone2.5 soon.

Plone undoubtedly has lots of features, but I find it quite difficult to use. I think others do to since we are only using the simplest features that something like WordPress would provide. Maybe its possible to make this plone site easier to use, that I don't know. But I think its a big issue that keeps the site from being all that it could.
From my experience with Drupal, my guess is that it would take 40 hours of work to get the setup working better. Basically there are far too many options right now. It should be greatly simplified so that you don't have to learn all the details of Plone in order to do anything with the site.
That's my two bits.

Hello,
From my experience with Drupal, my guess is that it would take 40 hours of work to get the setup working better. Basically there are far too many options right now. It should be greatly simplified so that you don't have to learn all the details of Plone in order to do anything with the site.
The problem is migrating the content not doing another site will need lots of hours.
On the other site we can simplify plone just get rid of the publish-workflow and so pending state and reviewer role, just manager and members and anonymous, like a big wiki.
My offer to a web-designer is:
if she/he just thinks a little bit of what is needed on the site and make a design proposal as plain (x)html (maybe just use the plone standard css-download as a starting point) I could try to give my best to implement the skin in plone, as file based product, so in future everybody can hack on it.
Please think as of slots in the surface to design and fill. Maybe its a good idea somebody who has no plone experience make the design so it doenst look like all other plone sites.

I wasn't suggesting replacing plone, just estimating how long it would take to fix up the current plone site.
On the other site we can simplify plone just get rid of the publish- workflow and so pending state and reviewer role, just manager and members and anonymous, like a big wiki.
Sounds like a start. And maybe removing a couple of the content types that aren't used. That would go a long way.
