Gavin,

I must confess that I do know both just by name (WebGUI runs with Perl,
Mamboserver runs with PHP, Zope is Python based). I know that Zope has -
for an open source CMS - a big and active community. Here in Germany
dzug.org organizes a yearly Zope sprint for the whole German speaking
area with participation of well known Zope folks.

Whatever system is chosen, it seems to be necessary to have one for
future growth. fedoranews.org can become a central informative place for
all Fedora people with a lot of howtos, reviews, news and rumors. But
that maybe is better discussed inside the circle of those who fill that
site already with life.

Alexander
