Dylan,

Is it possible to get access to the data used in creating your "Plone
Positioning"  chart?  I've done hundreds  of these over the years and
would like to try to get at the heart of your message.

It's based on a similar one used in an elcom presentation. I don't  
know how accurate that one was but not very in regard to open source  
CMS's. I added the extra axis about community OSS and put Plone on the  
chart.
I was would appreciate any further information to make it more accurate.
