Ian, I'd like to suggest taking a look at Sava CMS (www.gosava.com), our free open-source ColdFusion CMS. It's got the features you're looking for:
1. User uploaded content (both text and file-based) 2. Integrated advertising manager 3. Extensive RSS support Your concept sounds similar to a site we developed for a client - check out www.biteclub.com. It's a niche social networking site focused on the restaurant industry, and I think it's a nice showcase for a lot of the things you can do with Sava. If you have any questions about Sava, please follow up here or send me an email at malcolm.okeeffe (at) blueriver.com. Best of luck with your project!
