Looks like Radiant is still in the lead, but some of the runners up also
look promising, might check them out and see if they fit your needs better.

The second one on the list, Browser CMS has a conference presentation you
can watch to get a better feel
http://aac2009.confreaks.com/07-feb-2009-10-00-browsercms-patrick-peak-and-paul-barry.html

The third one on the list, Refinery CMS, has a short video overview. Their
site is pretty slick, and presumably uses their CMS.

Quite a few have example sites, but some aren't Rails, so if that is
important to you, be sure to look for it.
