Hi,

I'm aware of this approach, and we've been debating long vs. short URLs
amongst ourselves for some time, but the big breakthrough seems to be that
Google is now spidering the long URLs. Here's an example CAMPSITE URL:

http://www.campware.org/look/article.tpl?IdLanguage=1&IdPublication=3&NrIssue=1&NrSection=1&NrArticle=16

and this is now being spidered correctly.

What I wanted to know is: are other CMSes are noticing the same?

cms that are doing well w.r.t brent's law of cms url

http://inessential.com/?comments=1&postid=2190

have been indexed by google for a while in my experience.

basically, if you use query strings in your URLs, tough luck.
