David,

If you look at everything a CMS provides, yes it is pretty complicated
to write your own.

Secondly, which would the business prefer for you to spend your time
on, writing a CMS or writing business apps.

A CMS should make a developer's life easier, thus even in a one-man
shop they are useful IMO.

Hi,

As we are looking at the possibility of revamping our homegrown installation utility, I'd like to know more about CMS. I never even heard of CMS before subscribing to this list. I was wondering what I am missing. Is it really that complicated to write a utility that takes care of the development installation and everything that is impacted by it? How might we benefit from buying a CMS?

Thanks.
