The database is and object database called ZODB and it is bundled together with the Zope installation. ZODB default storage is file based, but optionally, ZODB may use MySQL or PGSQL as its backend storage, allowing replication/backup through the SQL backend .. Infra requirement for latest Plone, * Python2.6 (so should be ok on RHEL/CentOS .. but if its a Fedora server, will need compat-python26) * ability to listen to a port * gcc, g++, python2.6-devel, libxslt-devel, libjpeg-devel, zlib-devel for buildout to build some python eggs (what is buildout?, covered below) > Is there an RPM? There used to be RPM for Fedora, but it was orphaned, and for EPEL, its outdated. However, the best method (and also the recommended method by the Plone community) of deployment of Plone is using Buildout (http://www.buildout.org/) , which is a deployment tool which automatically pulls python eggs from pypi , and install them into a self-contained directory, avoiding conflicts with system's python site-package, and also allowing easy updates to latest versions without being restricted to distribution packages. I'm not sure how well this will go with the infra team .. > Does it support multi-language? as in translation ?.. Plone itself support multilingual using an addon called LinguaPlone. LinguaPlone allows each page to have different language versions. However my conference addon does not support it yet as I am utilizing a new content type framework for Plone, of which it have yet to get a multilingual support (planned, as this new content type framework is supposed to replace the current one.. but not ready yet) .. -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331 _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
