ESUG proposed to lukas to get payed to produce a better version of  
Pier that ESUG (and everybody) could use to
build website. Now lukas is totally fully booked. We wanted to have a  
file/database back end with external resources management, an admin,  
and easy install download. We hope that lukas will get some time for  
Pier. So at least you know that I was not saying that we should  
change the underlying
system. just swap two paragraphs.
