Re: AbiWord website re-design

 Hi,

i think you should definetely go for this, the design looks really
good, i like it.
But if you want to work with a CMS you should do it from the
beginning, so select a nice one to use(Typo3 ?, Joomla ? Modx ?), i
think its worth using a CMS.
I can help you on that, if you want to.
