I have little experience with CMS overall, but Zikula looks very
interesting.  I had some passing thoughts that may not be specific
enough to really be questions for the Zikula guys yet.  Anyone who
wants to add to or clarify them, please feel free!

* Integration with Fedora Account System for single sign on
  capabilities.  At the very least, we want to start with using the
  FAS for authentication.

* Any possibility in the future of a SCM <-> DocBook <-> XHTML content
  conduit?  That way people could write the content in wiki style,
  have it translated into rough DocBook and stored in an SCM
  elsewhere, and an editor in between could re-tag things as needed.
  This is a bit of pie-in-the-sky; the important thing right now is to
  have a workflow that allows for easier and more scalable publishing
  and translating efforts.
