    IDK, Liferay just seems like it is going to have a lot of maintenance issues... unless your company is very good about restricting which bits of the open source project your developers work on... and then there are still things like reporting capabilities, mobile phone access.. cloud access.. that you get from sharepoint...??? I'd blame it on the Brain farts.. But let's be honest, it really is more like a Methane factory between my ears some days then it is anything else... ----- "The conversations he was having with himself were becoming ominous."-..

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bingo_(Commonwealth)[^] Winners shout "House" to attract attention to their win and end the game. Apparently. Doesn't look anywhere near as much fun as Serious Sam... Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

    Cloud services seem to be promising more than they can deliver at the moment (in terms of speed and reliability), and their survival seems dependent on people that don't need it, buying it. At least I haven't seen as many MS cloud commercials lately, those were mind numbing. Craigslist Troll: litaly@comcast.net "I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.
