Download and test it, but not on a production server.

Bernard: Hi, as a YACS newbie, the one thing that really impressed me was the fact that it installed cleanly as described ...just followed the installer steps.

Further information is that the mysql database resides on a seperate server to the cluster.

However, I did find my logged in status dropped out fairly often when dodging around from various parts of admin/control panel and rest of the site. I therefore incrementally upgraded to the very latest 6.3.1 release today ... and find that the logged in status seems to droput more frequently ... also the final stages of the upgrade did not run entirely smoothly ...why I have no idea? I am not a programmer lol.

However, having "road-tested" my way through around 1200 OS cms/portal scripts in the last few months for a project ... I am very impressed by the fluid nature of YACS and the diversity of stuff that can be done unlike virtually all of the other contenders. My French colleague may contact you about certain possibilities shortly

For our project purposes Yacs compares more than favourably with say Typo3 and ezPublish.

LOL, maybe I will have to now get inside how Yacs works and focuss on the detail as opposed to the broader issues :o

Yacs is looking good Bernard. I will post relevant feedback when appropriate.

Just remembered, it would perhaps be nicer if when logging-out anywhere onsite the page refresh was to the home page ... it gets confusing being left on different pages with no access permission ... just my 2 cents

User Groups

Having the possibility to create user groups would help with mailing lists and granting editor rights.

All,

Thanks for the bunch of explanations and such but my initial request was for something much more simpler.
I'm basically lazy and want to avoid to do things over and over and hence my request for some user groups feature.
You can compare this to the groups featuer you have when administering Users and Groups in Windows or Linux.
There are 2 things I want to do regularly: 1- send a newsletter to a selective group of people that do not fit the standard options.
Why? We run a single YACS site that has new postings that are only relevant to a sub section of it's members.
2- Assign editor rights to a pre-defined set of users that I would like to find back in groups. See the interest group of above topic.
