[Baypiggies] Baypiggies web site

[Donna Snow]

There is a decent DjangoCMS http://www.django-cms.org/ that could be used
instead. Although I've used Plone for a long, long time I'm leaning toward
only using it for larger installs (intranets, large application builds that
require heavy resources anyway) I'm finding it's overkill for most projects
but works really well for larger installations (We build an app for CalTrans
on it) So might be time to go Django and put the Plone site to rest. I don't
have the time to maintain the Plone site (even in 3+ mode) I think our
Pythonista's would be more comfortable with a python based site with a
relational database (rather than object oriented) though Tony will have to
move his book reviews..but we can export his reviews into xml format - does
anyone know if we can import into Django once we've exported as xml?
