Hey all,

In response to a side topic of today's meeting, I did about two weeks worth
of research on light to medium weight content management systems for some
personal projects and found Concrete5:


http://www.concrete5.org/


I've been very happy with it so far, other than the fact that they decided
to start charging for some of the more advanced features, like a blog and
forums.  It's free, PHP-based, open-source, and has a pretty strong
development community behind it.  From a developer's point of view, it's
easier to approach than Drupal or Joomla, but I think it doesn't cut
features or flexibility to do it.

Thought I'd spread the word since it (kinda) came up in the meeting today.

Pat
