.NET free CMS roundup

Basically it comes down to 2, the rest are all disqualified due to over complex install instructions, bad/wrong (installation) support, no support for VS2008 (yes, some still live back in 2005), or simply I gave up trying to run it. 1. mojoPortal[^] - OSS, runs on Mono. Multi-portal support, tons of skins, very good docs. 2. TandemServer 2008[^] - free, but slightly limited, no multi-portal support, seems solid. For a good CMS resource, try http://www.cmsmatrix.org/[^].

DNN is not bad, it's only that build time that puts me off! And the fact that everything seems to have been commercialized around it. I just wonder how the maintainers go about extending it and fixing bugs/testing/etc...

IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)I agree with both of these comments. building the core is very painful, and with the whole marketplace thing they have going on, it does seem to have taken a turn for the worse. Regarding the building, are you planning on making changes to the CMS itself, or add functionality to it in the form of a module? My personal experience has been to create new modules outside of the dnn sln just so i don't have to sit through the build of the core. take my comments in stride though. I spent 6 months building a product based on DNN and am now starting over (bit of a direction change too) going the route of rails and mySQL. :doh:

IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)For "most" people they never have to build the core so that would be a none issue. I have added web services to the core before, so I do not know, but if you ask some of the core developers they could probably show you a way that you do not have to compile it all the time.

IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)mogoPortal is not bad. Does it allow multiple container skins on a page/site? From what I could see, it only allows for one skin them for the entire site and only one type of container for modules. Surely there is a setting in the demo I am not noticing..
