Old dogs.. old tricks

Recently, I've been scrambling to get the ideal combination of open-source, free, recommended software for the client in Tema and looking at the best way to tie in dreamweaver, tomcat, mySql with eclipse. It's only when a non-technical team member asked if these were heavy enterprise products, did at some point it hit me, that maybe a four software combination isn't something a non-technology centric school might be able to manage when we're not there. In this case then, a better solution is probably a single ready package software like OpenAdmin for schools, which may be limiting, though much more easier for a less IT Capable school to manage.
"Best solution is the one designed to customer's needs" - makes more sense as you grow in your career, funny then how our increasing experience itself makes us forget about it. Something about old dogs, new tricks? :)
