I totally agree!
I use version 1.6.6 of CMSMS to develop two websites; one is at http://www.magrood.com and the other at http://www.westmoral.com. These two website are maintained by village committee. This proves that CMSMS is very easy to use.
I found that the Thai translation version is not available. Even though my knowledge on php is limited, I am willing to help out with the Thai translation so that more Thai people will get the benefits of this excellent CMS.

I am trying to print out the Documentation page on installation and I get either of these results:
1) Preview print shows only the first page will be printed.
2) Instead of going to print, I am taken to a blank page headed "User Friendly Pages" where there is an invitation for me to add content!
Selecting the "Printer friendly" option at the bottom of the page makes no difference.
This is very frustrating and also makes me wonder if there ia a bug in CMS-MS?
i am using Minefield (Firefox 3.0.8) on Mac OSX 10.5.8
Is there somewhere I can download the documentation?
