[CMS] CMS migration

[Bill Trippe]

Hello Jaako,

I am sure some of the vendors have tools for this, but if your content base
is large (and it looks it!), I would suggest you look at some of the
established data conversion vendors.  Given a specification for the XML (DTD
or schema), and access to the content, they could do this work very well and
at very reasonable costs.  If you would like a recommendation or two, I
would be happy to discuss this further.  I am an independent consultant, and
not tied to any company or vendor.

Bill

Subject: [CMS] CMS migration

Hi all,

We are undertaking a project to migrate our content management platform from
Vignette V6 to a new solution which is yet to be decided. As part of the
general project plan we have started investigating our options to migrate
our content.

Our biggest challenge is (beside that we haven't decided on the target CMS
yet) having to export content stored as HTML, tidy it up and convert it to
XML.
