I'm looking for an open source PHP/MySQL CMS that I can use as the backend to my website.
If you've got the time & skills, I'd actually recommend creating your own -- building my own CMS rapidly enhanced the way I work, streamlined my code, built up my knowledge and problem solving techniques, etc etc.
It's now a product I sell to my clients over and over, so it's also enhanced my earning potential :)
But the real bonus is I have exactly what I want -- nothing more, nothing less. Most templating engines and CMS have HUGE overheads, and from what I can tell, a HUGE learning curve before you can "get in and dirty" with modifications / enhancements to the functionality --- or even the look/feel.
When a client says "can I.....", I don't hesitate -- I just reply "yes" and get to work -- because I know my code inside out.
It'd be different with a large organisation with many contributors, all needing different levels of permissions -- in which case I'd consider using something with a lot of those features (editorials, approvals, etc) -- but from what I can tell this is outside your requirements.
That's just my take though :)
