I thought I recognised your name when I was looking into that :) Any
idea why RedHat pulled-out? I thought it was based on their CMS
originally and it's not as if the project finished years ago...

APLAWS+ was the first CMS I tried installing to test and although the
RPMs went on OK, and the DB seemed to be set-up fine, it wouldn't
actually run. The only help anyone on the forums could offer was 'ensure
you're using exactly the packages documented, no earlier, no later'. Is
it worth the effort it'll take me to install it; hunting out all the old
packages it needs?

Cheers,

Richard
