If you're into XML and AxKit, I think that Matt Sergeant has made the stuff he uses for take23.org available. Ah yes, AxKit-NewsMaker. Available for download from: http://axkit.org/download/ I haven't actually looked at how easy it is to work with, but it'll probably require fairly good XML familiarity. -Dom -- | Semantico: creators of major online resources | | URL: http://www.semantico.com/ | | Tel: +44 (1273) 72 | | Address: 33 Bond St., Brighton, Sussex, BN1 1RD, UK. |

But yes, that's debateable. One of his usability arguments is that if you're trying to build a usable site, you really want to make it work like all the others.

CMS frameworks
Some guys out here in Brizzle want to do "Yet Another CMS". Are there any frameworks out there they can plug together to make something plausible? I guess bits of the 2.0 slashcode do the job nicely, what with being TT based and all. Any other offers?
