Need Better Way to Package Entire Website Structure
I use the same document types, css files and basic templates over and over. I wish I could export them all as a package and import into a new Umbraco install, but I have found this to be a buggy process. Particularly when using nested document types, I almost always get an error when importing the package into a new install.
Has anyone else experienced these package issues? How do you handle creating a basic Umbraco model that you can redeploy (sans content) for new sites?

I have the same problem. Please vote for this codeplex issue: http://umbraco.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=24438
As a workaround you could set up a new clean install, add your doc types, templates, css etc.
Then just back up the database and file structure and restore them as the basis for each new site.

Yeah, that's true Rich, but not ideal. If packages worked flawlessly, that would be great.
