Hi!
The last two weeks I spent a lot of time to make the homepage building process a big step forward. I have written a simple, effectiv and tiny CMS (called "RosCMS") that is able to generate the static xhtml/html files in less then one second. The generator also has the ability to generate the pages in different languages at the same time.
I implemented my homepage (design) suggestion with this system, and it works great! Please try the example page. To login to the CMS interface use: username: test password: test
http://frik85.fr.funpic.de/reactos/
I also integrated the new version of the compatibility database and combined it with the package manager database (-> one programm tree and easier navigation). Note: the support (the new version) will go online soon. I also will import the compatibility data from my ReactOS Fansite.
The generator change all links in the pages to provide a great interface and link all pages together, also in the static pages. So it is possible to change the language on every static page without javascript or a server side script (like php, asp, etc.). Only static html or xhtml pages are used.
Please also read the mail (abou the same topic) I wrote about one week ago.
I hope we can use the RosCMS system.
Best regards, Klemens Friedl
P.S.: Should I call for a vote (RosCMS vs. other solutions (Mambo, etc.))?
