[Web4lib] Questions for Plone Users

[Annie Platoff]

We are hoping to migrate our web site into Plone.  We currently have 
static HTML pages and are looking for ways to make the migration easier.

We would love to hear how other libraries have dealt with this type of 
migration.  Below is a list of our questions.  Please respond to the 
list or to Morgan Cowles (cowles at library.ucsb.edu).  Thanks!

1.  How did you migrate your existing site into Plone?  Was your site 
made up of static HTML pages or did you migrate from another CMS?

2.  What kind of documentation do you have for your content creators and 
content managers?  Are there any books or guides that you would 
recommend related to using Plone?

3.  How many people do you have on your staff dedicated to working with 
Plone?

4.  Are you happy with your decision to migrate to Plone?

5.  How do you handle redundancy and backups?  What kind of hardware are 
you using for your Plone site? 

6.  Have you hired a consultant to set up your Plone site?  If so, would 
you recommend them?  Or, is there anyone out there who consults for 
these services?
