[dba-VB] CMS: Umbraco (was: Composite C1 now open source)

Hi Jim --

What "certain unforeseen class errors" do you mean?

As far as I see from my experience with DNN 4.x and now a bit of experience
with DNN 5.x this CMS is very mature; and I know developers who make good
business using DNN - I haven't heard from them on "unforeseen class
errors"...

Thank you.

Hi Shamil:

You can add, depending on how you wish to deploy it (DNN), certain
unforeseen class errors. If you want it clean and simple, community web base
database system, no problem but anything fancy be careful and realize that
it may take a bit of time to resolve some of the errors... ;-)

Hi Gustav --

I have had three main issues with DNN:

- slow start-up;
- limited built-in localization features;
- the need to develop a DNN module for every subject area object (not a big
issue to develop a DNN module per se but I thought that many custom modules
influence badly start-up time. Also navigation between custom modules was an
issue for me when I did learn DNN last year...)

But it looks like most of the issues I was concerned about have now a good
workarounds with DNN 5.x - and DNN web site can be made speedy enough even
when running on a hosted web site - here are a few good examples:

http://www.jackandjillholidays.com   
http://www.apronstagerestaurant.co.uk/Home.aspx  
http://www.thenewdesigner.co.uk/ 

The above DNN web sites are running on http://www.pipeten.com (89.248.50.*)

Thank you.
