[Typo3] Typo3 vs Plone. What are strenghts and weaknesses?

[Ries van Twisk]

Hey All,

I can't do any testing on plone vs typo3 (but I would love to... I have 
installed it but that's it...)
But maby is a good idea to find a (couple) (of) plone guru(s) and let 
him do the same...
This will bring up a more unbiased result...

just my 2 cents..
