Based on eZ Components, the eZ Publish Content Management System is one of my favourite application development environments.

It is based on PHP, so it is easy to maintain without server restart and hours of waiting to make an update to the customer installation.

Many developers think that PHP is no good solution for enterprise level applications. Basically I can agree with this, because PHP is very flexibly in its usage and not very strict when it comes to clean code. It is up to the developer to follow coding guidelines and rules, so that maintaining the enterprise ready web application becomes maintainable.

As far as I can see, don't use eZ Publish when you just want to build a simple homepage. Use something like Joomla for example, which is one of my favourite CMS, for simple homepages. Use eZ Pulish if you want to build enterprise ready applications and not only a homepage.

special characters in siteaccess name

I had to configure a site with up to 50 languages for one of our customers.

I wanted to have siteaccesses like de-DE, de-AT, en-GB, en-US, ...

But eZ Publish (tested in Version 4.4) came up with an error saying that it can't find the module.

This is a known issue by eZ Systems.

Basically you can access the siteaccess with de-DE in the url, but this will access the harddisk folder de_DE, and NOT de-DE.

Think about this fact when you configure your siteaccess the next time.
