This panel discussion will bring together a group of experienced Web designers, developers, and businesspeople to talk about their experiences building sites using a variety of content management system (CMS) products. A variety of widely-used CMS products will be covered, including Drupal, Expression Engine, SharePoint, and Collage, and the panel will also cover the challenges of developing a "home-grown" CMS from scratch. Panelists will include front-end interface designers, back-end programmers, and consultants who will provide an overview of each system and discuss their experiences using them in corporate, academic, and not-for profit environments. The goal of the discussion is to provide an overview of what kinds of CMS products are available, and what their respective strengths and weaknesses are.
