skyPublishing
Web publishing tools are content management tools. You can create, maintain, and schedule your web content - web pages, presentations, data entry forms, news feeds, etc. - from easy to use web-based editing tools. skyWriter lets your staff edit web pages directly from their web browsers. Workflow messages inform Editors and Publishers that page alterations are in progress.
There are several skyPublishing modules:
- skyPages - Scheduled multilingual pages editable over the web with skyWriter. Pages include optional Forums (threaded discussions), a hit counter, and a persistent archive of all versions.

- skyGlossary - Glossary builder, with links to skyIndex
- skyIndex - Indexes the whole web site for fast searches, and presents an alphabetical index.
