Metadot is being used a lot in Schlumberger and Sema intranet websites (Sema is a large European IT company) , among many other clients. It's also being used in a big French ceramics company called St. Gobain.
The Open Source version is currently lagging behind our latest (closed-source) release by about three or four months. Our closed-source version is comercially available and comprises, basically, the open-source framework plus a number of useful add-ons. We also do custom additions to the framework (in fact tailoring the software is our main business). Installing Metadot can sometimes get complicated, but is usually a straightforward process. I think Metadot internals are easy to learn and customize, as we have been improving them constantly for the last year. If you know your way around mod_perl and object oriented Perl you should be able to tailor Metadot to your liking in little time. You can also choose to program your own add-ons using the APIs we provide for that. Hope that helps, Claudio > > > Metadot bills itself as a portal product.
