AW: [opencms-dev] Is OpenCMS the right tool for this?

[Kai Schliemann]

Hi Serge,

I don't know what kind of answer you expect. But to simply answer it. Yes,
you can achieve all your issues with OpenCMS 6 (without changing the OpenCMS
core). It is just a question of templating and user/rights management.

Hope this helps.
