61	61	We proposed a solution that was basically a CCMS, but due to some boundary condidtions (mainly, the requirement to publish to the global content retrieval system) we had to build a custom solution.

The client did what the customer wanted, but CVS was too slow when abused for this task. So we started developing an open source platform to replace CVS. This platform became our open source CCMS and DMS Cinnamon later which we use as platform for a diversity of solutions, including CCMS.
