No Cate & Peter, that's not fair. For a "normal" BE-user (say an editor) 
it can be made very, very, very easy and simple.
Only for the administrator it's not so easy.

No, also not true. But there are some rules. One of them is to use your 
real full name (first and last). Mostly if I see p.e. "Cate & Peter" or 
"prashant n" I skip the posting.

And questions clearly answered in the documentation don't have my/our 
priority.

If it's for 1 (big) site let it build, buy the knowledge and let you 
teach by a good company.

TYPO3 has the capabilities you want. And much more!
