Re: Actually...

Navindra answered this pretty well.. but here is the short (and 100% accurate since I made the decision) reason:

1. Zope natively uses an internal database to store the pages. I wanted to keep the pages in CVS. I know it's possible to skip the database.. but that brought me to the second point..

2. I am not very familiar with either Zope or PHP.. but I know a LOT of people in the KDE community that know PHP and don't know of any beside Navindra that know anything about Zope. If I have a PHP question, I can get it answered very quickly. If I had a Zope question, I wouldn't have known where to start.

So in the end, in spirit with the KDE style of development, I chose the solution that worked for me at the time... and it was PHP.

*nod* ... and thats fine. The site DOES look well, regardless. Maybe we can get an IOSlave for WebDAV and XML-RPC/SOAP for KDE, and make accessing the Object Database somewhat easier for KDE Users (I envision managing Zope from Konqueror). Well, at any rate, use what ya know, be it PHP or whatever - just keep up the excellent work!
