I do believe Bricolage does a whole lot of stuff we don't need. If it is
as easy/easier to get going than something less capable, I don't see
that as a problem. Only if Bricolage reqiures *more* work than the less
capable (but capable enough) solution it becomes a problem.

Personally I don't really care Bricolage vs others - but it has to be
something that has a relatively low maintenance burden once it's set up.
And it has to be really easy for contributors to get their stuff in.

You know from previous posts what I *think* about these major CMS vs
really-simple-roll-your-own, but that's just my personal guesses. It's
the end reuslt that counts - and whichever tool fits best to get there
should be used. If you have another CMS in mind that fits the need, then
I definitly think it's worth investigating in parallell with bricolage
to determine which would be better long-term.
