Hi Rick.

I use one called cms made simple. Its beautiful and nearly 100%
accessible.
 
It requires a mysql database and has loads of plug ins. And as the name
suggests its very easy to use. Check out http://www.cmsmadesimple.org

Thanks.
Nick.

Look at both Umbraco and Mojo Portal.

Subject: Drupal and Microsoft CMS Options?

 

Hi: I know very little about CMS. As a result of Jamal using it, I have
looked at some of the Drupal docs by googling but am having trouble
wrapping my head around exactly how it all works since I am an old
Microsoft user. I am trying to figure out a similar option in the
Microsoft World. So far I think that Sharepoint and Open Office, both
2010 versionws with accessibility, sound like they are the Microsoft
counterpart to Drupal. does this sound about right? Since they support
ARIA and the other new Web Standards, or at least some articles say they
do, has anyone tried them out? If there is another Microsoft thingy
where it looks or works sort of a CMS with DB storage and perhaps Media
support could you mention it so I can do a little more digging?

It looks like allot of blind folks are trying to use various CMS
Websites and most of them are pretty bad. They also sound almost as
complex to create and maintain as a standard Website developed in
something like VWD. Anyway, thanks for any input you provide on CMS,
Drupal or any Microsoft counterpart products that I can research a
little more.

Again, the Microsoft 2010 versions of the Open Office and Sharepoint are
suppose to be accessible where the older versions were not very
accessible if that helps.
