Yesterday morning I presented a three hour workshop on selecting a web content management system at the Gilbane Conference in San Francisco. I was told to expect a small audience but the room filled up quite nicely. I ran out of hand-outs but you can download a copy here. Here my slides.
Today I will be presenting in a session on WCM Architectures and Customization. My talk is about architectural patterns in web content management systems and strategies for extending them. Here are the slides.

I read about your CMS selection session on CMS Wire. I found the slides on slideshare.com, but just wanted you to know that both decks embedded on this page are the Deployment slides.
I wasn’t there in person, but I do think your advice and slides are great advice and a wake up call for anyone going through this process (I’ve been through it several times and have run into all of the issues you highlight). Thanks so much for sharing — very, very helpful.
Thanks for the heads up Chris! All fixed now.

I put together a list of some best practices for a CMS project a while back. We’ve been doing CMS implementations for a number of years now and they truly are different than other Enterprise Application implementation projects. Much more business user involvement is required as you state in these slides, both during selection, during development AND after launch.
