Re: What is open first

Basically, openFIRST is aimed to be a solution for a quick and easy creation of a powerful team web site. However, it is also highly customizable, so if you want a unique site, it can be done.

I think it is a good solution for a team site. Once it is installed, any team member can post news and manage the site. That reduces the workload on the webmaster, plus you can get people directly involved with, say, mechanical stuff, to write a news article about something mechanical They can usually write it better than the webmaster could, and they dont have to know HTML

It is pretty easy to install and customize, and there is a lot of functionality. There should be more than enough for a great team site. We are cleaning up the last bugs in the modules. If you need help setting it up, just PM me. I am sure Tim and Dave won't mind helping out too
