It has been more than 6 months since the most recent press release with any substance from privately-held Web CMS vendor Percussion. Except for management changes and an award to a customer, the most recent product release is about personalization, from late April.

Percussion also has a CTO blog, where the most recent entry is a slight bit fresher, from July.

Perhaps in these times, no news is good news. However, I say that 6 months feels too long to be quiet. A big part of surviving in tough times is saving money, so it might make sense to cut down on press releases, updating the website, blogging -- but in this industry, you the buyer should carefully investigate any radio silence.

[Update, Nov 13: After reading this blog Percussion contacted us to provide an update on their activities over the last 5 months. Expect to see more from their side shortly]
