The Mambo content management system is generally easy to install, set up, configure, and use, but that doesn't save you from the complexity of designing and managing a large Web site. Mambo may be easy to install, but the post-install configuration has so many facets and possibilities that it's easy to drown in the details. Wiley Publishing's new Mambo book accelerates Mambo site development by providing new Webmasters and small publishers with the requisite details and tips to get a Mambo site into production the way they want it in a short amount of time.

Team Mambo has released a new flavor of Mambo -- the Raw Core installation. This installation is for everyone who wants a Mambo with a smaller footprint; for those who don't want sample data, a WYSIWYG editor, and a bunch of components and modules you may not use.

The Raw Core is currently available for download and feedback. We've only released 4.6 RC2 in this format for now. If the feedback supports continuing down this path, the Team will move forward with developing this idea.

BlueprintGlobal publisher, John Wiley & Sons has released their newest Visual Blueprint title -- Mambo: Your Visual Blueprint for Building and Maintaining Websites with the Mambo Open Source CMS.

Wiley’s Visual Blueprint series relies on a series of short (one or two page) chapters that focus on the accomplishment of discreet tasks. The chapters are illustrated with screen shots from the system and provide a step-by-step breakdown of exactly what the user needs to do to complete a task successfully. The task chapters are supplemented by charts and explanatory screens which detail the interface, the controls and key concepts.

The title, authored by Ric Shreves, provides the most comprehensive documentation yet released for the award-winning Mambo Content Management System (CMS). “The Mambo system is widely acknowledged as under documented,” notes the author, “with this title, Wiley has moved in to help address the need for accessible and comprehensive documentation for users.”
