PRES 1.10.0 Beta 1

PRES project (the Press Release System) is a simple content management system, essentially targeted at producing a news and information site. Managing a PRES system is designed to be simple.
However, presentation is sophisticated and flexible. An elementary knowledge of IT would be useful but expertise in designing and managing websites is not a requirement. PRES can be used for anything from private blogging to corporate news systems.
Main features:
Flexible Presentation
- All content is generated as XML which is styled at server side with XSL-T stylesheets to provide the final look and feel of your pages. This permits an almost infinite variety of presentations. Furthermore, different XSL-T transforms can be associated with different categories, allowing you to have different styling for different parts of your site.
Caching
- Content is generated on request, but in order to limit the computational load on busy sites all content is cached for a limited period (by default twenty minutes).
Subscription
- PRES allows users to subscribe to categories - effectively sections of the site. When new stories are posted to a section youre subscribed to, you will automatically get email with a link to the story.
Syndication
- PRES makes its headlines available as a syndication feed, using both RSS 0.91 and RSS 1.0. This allows other news sites to automatically incorporate live headlines from a PRES site into their content.
Threaded Discussion
- PRES optionally allows registered users to add comments to stories in a threaded manner, similar to sites like Slashdot.
Moderation
- PRES optionally allows registered users to moderate other users comments.
