Is this site running on an OS/2 server?

Our focus is getting the job done—with a minimum of money and effort, and a maximum of reliability and sustainability.

Few providers offer hosting on OS/2, however, Rosenthal & Rosenthal, in New York, USA, does. This site is currently hosted on an HP Proliant server running eComStation.

A number of required tools for running TYPO3 were not always available for OS/2. Thanks in part to the great beginning work by Michael Oehlhof and Roland Schmalenberg (http://www.os2notes.com/old/os2typo3.html), followed by Gianfilippo Cimmino, Paul Smedley, and Steve Levine, we now have the components necessary to run TYPO3 on OS/2. Our heartfelt thanks go out to all of them.

Why are you using TYPO3? It is overly complicated, slow, technologically outdated...

There is a number of reasons:

This web site is going to be a huge project. What you see as the current warpstock.eu site is only a part.
We need all kinds of features.
Administration and the different content areas and languages will be handled by a larger number of persons.
A kind of quality assurance for the content has to be possible.
The CMS must be capable of handling this while keeping a tidy interface for the content editors.
Professional hosting must be available.

We can assure you that we are aware of the fact that TYPO3 does have a learning curve. But the results make the effort worthwhile.
