Status: This is a project in planning state. Currently, these are just thoughts and ideas noted for future usage -- once I have time and/or materials needed for this. If you want to help me with the materials issues, you can check the WishList for an overview what I am missing. Usually, though, the missing resource is just time.
A content management system for this website would be nice. No more SSIs, but included link-checking, versioning and many other features. I don't have a clue how to implement this yet.
This might also provide the ability to serve content to all devices, be they HTTP clients with graphical interfaces, or down to mobile phones with WAP connection and textual only display. Pages could be stored in some meta-format (real "content only" style), and be displayed appropriately for each device requesting them.
I could of course use some of the well known CMS tools, but I would like to have static pages on the servers only, and this is usually not the way they work.
Currently, I use a bunch of scripts that take web pages from my development webserver and upload them to the two productive web servers I operate, additionally creating the "what's new" page, updating the dynamic mail address, and doing some more housekeeping. This is at least somewhat automated, but the "content-only" style is not yet implemented.
