	Hi Jaakko,
	=0D
	You can check out the article recently published on CMS Watch on
Scenario based approach to evaluating CMS vendors:
http://www.cmswatch.com/Feature/153-Selecting-CMS-Tools
=0D
	General recommendation is to think about total cost of
ownership. Costs on training, deployment, following on support, and
customization can unpleasantly surprise.=0D
	Anyway, more specific criteria to a great extent depend on your
specific needs and your priorities.
	=0D
	Why do you actually need a CMS? Content reuse? Version control?
Collaborative work? Workflow management?=0D

		Hi all,
	=0D
		We are in contract negotiations with a CMS vendor and
the next stage is to define the acceptance criteria for the base
software. I'm struggling to come up with some basic items for the
criteria.
		Anyone out there who could share a template with some
generic items I could then customize?
