Perhaps I'm missing some detail but ASF CMS seems like a completely different tool for authoring web sites than any that we currently use. Personally had been hoping we'd move to using svnpubsub which seems more straightforward and doesn't require me to learn N new things (I probably won't have the time for) to do something which is simple today.
If there's some (hopefully simple) way to use CMS just as a publishing tool of the sites we build as-is with Forrest / Stylebook that's fine too. Thanks.
