Re: MODx : a great Etomite Fork
Well, it’s exactly multi-lingual, revisionning and an advanced permission system that I need. I’ve been able to build multi-lingual sites in txp before, the real draw-back is the lack of front-end editing in txp. I guess I’m going to try it out in modX in the coming weeks. If I understand you correctly, 0.9.5 is just a matter of days/weeks? Many thanks for the information!

Re: MODx : a great Etomite Fork
David … you know I like MODx and am using it in prototype fashion for a site. Still, I wonder whether it isn’t now becoming a bit gauche to pitch MODx in Textpattern’s forum when you have not contributed meaningfully to TxP in a long time? I would think it equally odd if a retired MODx user pitched TxP on the MODx forums.
I don’t doubt that you are still a friend to TxP but, heck, you are the ‘formal’ marketing director of MODx.
I’m not trying to start a flame war, so won’t comment again and hope no one else does either.

IMHO there’s a difference between what is forbidden and shouldn’t happen on one hand, and that which just feels… out of place. If I am interested in keepin up to date on vBulletin, I won’t expect to find the infos in the phpBB-support forum. I have really no interest in shutting down any topics that deal with other software, as long as discussion s civilized, because I still think it’s interesting when people explain and show a different approach to publishing content on the web and discussion ensues – but building a “steady outpost” in the support-forum/community of another project feels out of place to me. I am sure that the MODx site has a place where it can communicate with users and potential users that want to keep up to date. And personally I feel it’s more appropiate if that venue is used in the long-term. And then there’s of course always personal weblogs where people can share the things they find interesting with like-minded people.
