      That could be a major hit on the current market.

      Seems to me like they’re looking too far forward, unless this is simply a requirement of the "dashboard". I still get hits on my websites of people using IE5.5!

        Yeah, I think the IE requirement is mainly for the "dashboard"....and yes, they’re looking too far forward! Can you imagine if we told our users that they can’t use IE 6 anymore in the manager? They’d scream bloody murder! I can understand locking out IE 5.5 from the manager...but not IE 6...not yet at least! It’s all about the numbers and, right now, there are alot of businesses who have not yet rolled out IE 7 on their corporate machines. IE 6 is pretty much the majority on most business machines. Now, any admin who still has users using IE 5.5 or older should be shot on site...but that’s just my opinion! wink

            I honestly don’t think it will ever be anything but one of the hundreds of interesting little PHP cmses floating about. Heck they even recently completely took down the old forums and didn’t make an effort to migrate accounts and posts. Nice eh?

              Yeah, well... I really think they’re doing nice on the admin interface though, and Scotty seems to think that they’ve done a good job code-wise as well. And there has been a huge leap from their previous release to beta 2.

              But I kind of agree that it won’t take off if there is no community behind it (or else, they go full commercial and start hiring people to sell this). A two man team is too small, and someone like Maz is just too aggressive to have people feel like Home there... (this guy really has issues alright). Looking down on people and act dominant every chance you get is simply not a way to encourage participation and learning.

              But there are good ideas and skills there.
              It’s just that the potential is slim, as it is.
