Greetings!

There is now a demo site for Midgard available, thanks
to Michael Ed and Anders Karlsson.

The idea of this new service is to enable people interested
in Midgard to experiment with the system safely without
having to install it beforehand. Midgard's installation
process is still fairly difficult, and so this can make
evaluating the system much easier.

The server contains the normal applications contained in
all Midgard installations, the Admin and Example sites. 
Those two sites have been locked down so that they cannot
be modified, but the server has been set up to operate on
a range of different port numbers (8081-8090), where a
user can easily create a new virtual Midgard site using
the standard Admin Site tools.

Users can also add and modify pages for the normal hosts,
administrate content structures and design templates.
Creating new users and groups is also possible for 
authentication purposes, but the default Administrator 
user can't be modified.

The restrictions are in place to ensure that the normal
functions of the system are always accessible for users
and testers. The system also replaces the Midgard database
with a fresh one every 12 hours, erasing all modifications.

You can find more information from:
	http://midgard-demo.marlowes.com/

The Admin Site is running at:
	http://midgard-demo.marlowes.com:8101/

 The Administrator account is admin/password

For those new to Midgard, reading the walkthrough for
setting up a simple Midgard site might be useful. You
can find it from the Midgard FAQ:
	http://www.midgard-project.org/manual/x2140.html#AEN2163

Enjoy!

The sponsors of this service include Roxtec International 
AB, Digital Future and CityGuide Sweden. Thanks to everybody 
involved for setting this wonderful service up!
