**_Hockey Scouting Project_**
**_Our company needs a custom made CMS Solution._**
We are in favor of using Plone, PHP Nuke or another open source content solution.
We operate NCAA sports scouting web sites (2).
**_Here is what we need:_**
1. A simple HTML editor.
2. We need forms for player information.
3. We need an interactive message board at the bottom of each article.
4. We also need a message board.
4. We need a **message board** that is intregrated with the site. For an example of this go to [login to view URL] (section called hot topic, current replies and top ten threads)
5. We have a members area of the site.
Area to sign up for account.'
Admin panel where we activate users.
Our issue is: exchange of passwords. Digital Signature ... Hard Drive ID Tracking ... or only allowing people to download something once (?) you know the solution.
7. Site search engine, archives section, e-mailer subscription list.
**
Look and feel of the site:
**<[login to view URL]> -- this is a plone site that you can get a mirror of at [[login to view URL]][1] -- another site that is pretty tight for this realm of work is [[login to view URL]][2] -- for us it is all about content. That is what makes a site great.
I can send you specs and pictures of what our CMS looks like. Tell us how to ZIP a file (?) (-:
