I don't think that we are going to have to wait that long. Those support fees are outrageous by the way! Good grief! Doesn't anyone else have gripes about CMSs? I know you do...come on and voice them! David,

Someday we will have a truly user-friendly, SEO Friendly CMS, but by then, the way we manage our online content and presence will have changed to Web 3.0 and the whole CMS idea will be moot and obsolete.
