You can test drive it for yourself through its online demo before investing any time in downloading and installing it. If you want to know who else is using OpenCMS a list of reference sites may also be found.
One specific site that has been built using OpenCMS is the web site of the Spanish Presidency of the European Union which acts as a portal delivering information about the country and its government, news, media releases, cultural activities and more.
The site caters to international visitors by providing content in several major languages. Visitors may subscribe to RSS feeds for updates.
In the last two months the Ministry of the Spanish Presidency has awarded two dozen contracts related to its involvement in coming European Union summits, totalling some 23 million Euros. Of these the bulk – 11.9m to be precise – has been awarded to Telefonica for “technical assistance and security” relating to the website.
This price does not include translation for which an additional 147,900 Euros has been earmarked.
Other expenditure includes 2.99m Euros for designer furniture, leasing of space for 1.12m Euros and ties and scarves for delegates at a cost of 100,000 Euros.
