<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I'm helping a client select and implement the right CMS for their new website.
Their main objective is to allow their constituents to quickly create
individual sites. So it would work something like this:<br>
<br>
- you fill out a free membership form<br>
- you're immediately given a 3- or 5-page site of your own (e.g.
www.domain.com/yourname)<br>
- your pages are pre-set templates, but you're able to easily (through the CMS)
edit their content (change text and upload images; no need to change layout)<br>
- ideally, you would also be able to pick from some preset color schemes, but
this is not critical<br>
<br>
Is there a CMS that's especially good at doing this? Anyone want in on the
implementation contract?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Ashraf<br>
