<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed tomcat/JSDK/openCMS and everything is
working. I quickly reviewed the documents and did the first
exercises.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My first impression is: I will need to learn java
etc to get any kind of website running, let alone a complex.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have quite a bit of experience with
php/mysql.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was looking for a cms system to create and keep
up to date a website for a nonprofit organisation with a group of people
(designers, database managers, adminstrative people, ...).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My question: can I get away with not learning java
stuff and still be able to create/maintain a semi-complex website ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks and sorry if this answer is anywhere
readlily available.</FONT></DIV>
