[Zope-CMF] Re: [NLADA-library-users] Using DocumentLibrary Index with CMF

[Sion Morris]

 From what I can gather CMF Topics are used with items that have 
already been categorized.

The great thing about the DL is the hierarchical nature of the index 
and the way it indexes document. The topic chooser is a nice touch as 
well. The great thing about the CMF is the workflow, skins, 
membership etc. My aim is to have a content management system where 
uploaded document are indexed, categorised by the user using the 
topic chooser and then organised throughout the site based on their 
category. All this will be controlled by the CMF security. Where 
appropriate some document will run along a workflow.

So far I don't understand totally how the DL (or the CMF :-)) works. 
When I figure out how to "make a declaration to allow you to add 
TopicIndexRoot outside a document library", will it use the same 
catalog or vocabulary as the CMF?

Many thanks,

Sion
