Chapter 5: Developing a Site Strategy

In the previous chapter, we learned about various ways in which a developer can customize Plone without needing to change the source code of Plone itself. In this chapter, we will take a closer look at the requirements from Chapter 2 and create a policy product, which will facilitate the customizations necessary to implement these requirements.
