<DIV><FONT size=2>Hi!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I've read the <!--StartFragment -->"Development
status of the next OpenCms version" in the news section, but its a little
old (02/15/04)...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>So ive looked in the mailing list and found this post (<!--StartFragment --> <A
href="http://mail.opencms.org/pipermail/opencms-dev/2004q1/009593.html"
target=_blank>Roadmap to the next 'major' OpenCms release
6.0</A> ) : </FONT></DIV>

</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>According to it, the current CVS status shows that
openCms 6.0 is still in pre-alpha<!--StartFragment -->, the last version
number being 5.3.5.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>1- Our cms will be used by many users, should we
stick to opencms 5.0.1, write all of our documentation based
on this version and wait for the 6.0 release or should we
consider building the sources of a 5.3.* version ? Are the
last versions stable enought to consider working with them instead of
the 5.0.1?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>2- When do you plan to release the beta or the
first release candidate for version 6 ? That would be great to
have an updated roadmap with a new release date !</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Thanks in advance!</FONT></DIV>
