I'm proud to be able to release 1.0:
http://radiantcms.org/download/
Many good things have gone into this long-awaited release. The 1.0
series will be the last on Rails 2.
Only minor fixes will go into any further 1.x releases and our effort
will be focused on Rails 3 and further modularization of Radiant.
WHAT IS RADIANT CMS?
Radiant is a no-fluff content management system made for designers and
programmers and is ideal for use on small teams. It is similar to
Movable Type or Textpattern, but is much more than a blogging engine.
Radiant features:
* An elegant user interface
* The ability to arrange pages in a hierarchy
* Flexible templating with layouts, snippets, page parts, and a
custom tagging language (Radius: http://radius.rubyforge.org)
* A dynamic extension system
* A simple user management/permissions system
* Support for Markdown and Textile as well as traditional HTML
(it's easy to create other filters)
* Operates in two modes: dev and production depending on the URL
* A caching system which expires pages every 5 minutes
* Built using Ruby on Rails (which means that extending Radiant is
as easy as any other Rails application)
* Licensed under the MIT-License
* And much more...
There's even a live demo over on the project Web site:

WHAT'S NEW IN THIS RELEASE?
Radiant now runs on Ruby 1.9!
We now support Bundler and have a default way to manage attachments,
stylesheets (with support for Sass/SCSS), JS (with support for CoffeeScript),
built-in page preview, and many more features.
