"Started rolling out" means "had a conference call with the executive board
and talked them through logging in and creating content." :)

However, the site I am currently hosting at is my Linux box at home, and it
is understood by all that I will be moving the site to a real hosting
service in the months to come.

So the question I am looking to answer in the next couple of months is, is
upgrading to Plone 3.0 reliable and trouble-free compared to the benefits it
offers, such that I might consider changing versions as part of migrating to
a different host? Maybe these steps: copy to another Plone instance on my
machine, upgrade that instance, test, then move it all to the new host...

Anyway, what I'm really interested in is, what are the compelling benefits
of Plone 3.0 over 2.5.x?
