Malaysian public sector catching up on portals

After a 3-day workshop on portal strategy in Kuala Lumpur, it does seem like Malaysia is not so far behind Europe and the United States in this area. Most vendors covered in the Enterprise Portals Report are active the region, along with some interesting local open source initiatives. Some of the same universal challenges and questions come up, but I find that countries that come a bit later to these technologies tend to have a good and healthy understanding that the technical aspects of implementing a portal is easier than the people aspects of the project. One local problem here is a dearth of inexperienced system integrators. The larger global system integrators, including Indian ones, are available in the region, but it is a constant fight to get them to staff portal projects with experienced teams and to be considered a key account. If you find yourself without access to an experienced implementation partner, make sure to move from your seat at the isolated end of the table, to the center, where you can more actively maintain direct contact with your other suppliers -- especially the software vendor -- who might be able to help you directly instead. You might also be able to find experienced freelancers who can work inside your team.

This Autumn's CM Pros Summit in Boston, MA, USA will feature "Content Management and the World Enterprise." Strikes me as a very apt topic. Here's the call for papers with a 30 August deadline. Other informal CM Pros gatherings are slated for Rotterdam, Holland (October) and Aarhus, Denmark (November). CM Pros summits are inexpensive, and very nutritious. Hope to see you at one of them.
I am ecstatic to report that my XOOPS site: http://fbctogether.org is number one on Google.
Simply go to http://google.com and enter facing breast cancer in the search box and then select Im Feeling Lucky. This will take you to our site.
Anything you can do to help keep this site, and its message of supporting those who have breast cancer, on top of the Google search list is most appreciated!

Despite the universal appeal of "single-source" content management, the worlds of print and web publishing have remained stubbornly, beguilingly, distinct. Slowly -- very slowly -- a convergence is happening. Latest case in point: XML content management vendor Author-IT has built a website management module to complement its longstanding solution for technical documentation. To be sure, the Author-IT web CMS solution is really optimized for exposing technical documentation from its own repository (revealingly, the company identifies content in terms of "books"), but the package allows for real templating and navigation control, so it represents a more powerful front end than the simple index pages that constitute the web interfaces of most document management systems. Clearly that's a step in the right direction. Meanwhile, from the web side, XML-based CMS vendors are slowly moving upstream to manage original source content within the enterprise. Of course, they've been saying that for 6 years, but we're seeing more print materials getting authored in Web CMS repositories. Somewhere, sometime, the twain shall really meet.
Our XOOPS SITE OF THE MONTH CONTEST for month July 2006 is open NOW. This month we have only 4 nominations but some nice examples of xoops usage as we think.
Drupal 4.6.9 and Drupal 4.7.3 are available for download. These are maintenance releases that fix problems reported using the bug tracking system, as well as one security vulnerability.
Upgrading your existing Drupal sites is strongly recommended.
In recent news open source portal vendor eXo has joined the list of few vendors to support the emerging JSR-170 repository standard. Meanwhile, eXo Portal was tested earlier this year by part of the US Department of Defense during a three-week collaboration exercise with allied armed forces. This is interesting as eXo is the only European-based open source portal vendor on our radar. Also eXo out-of-the-box comes with fewer features than other open source portals, even though the project is clearly trying to enhance its content management capabilities. Perhaps thin and focused is the way to go?
Fantastico De Luxe: an insecure recipe for disaster

Fantastico De Luxe by Netenberg is an add-on for the popular cPanel web management software, available on many web hosting providers. It promises an easy, turn-key installation of dozens of web applications, including the Drupal CMS.
Unfortunately, while it may appear to fulfill those promises, the only thing Fantastico really gives you is a broken, insecure install that is hard to update. That's why we strongly advise the Drupal community not to use Fantastico to install and run a production Drupal site.
Don't just take our word for it however: take a look at the many support threads in our forums discussing problems with Fantastico. Its users have consistent problems with the installation and upgrading of even a simple Drupal site, let alone one which uses one of the many contributed modules available on our site. There are multiple reports of corrupted databases, lost files and broken installations.
A CMS is a system that lets you apply management principles to content. That might seem self-evident, but most companies today -- large and small -- do not manage content with the same rigor that they manage data...
