We're speeding along on one right now and should have an early public
beta in a couple weeks. Features of the forthcoming pkContextCMS
include:

* Use of Doctrine column aggregation inheritance to elegantly
implement custom slot plugins with real database fields for storage,
not "serialize/unserialize" as in sfSimpleCMSPlugin
* Implementation of custom slots via modules in plugins, so that
actions, components and partials can be used to implement them in a
more natural way
* Version rollback: all versions of a slot are kept and can be rolled back to
* Undelete for pages
* In-context management: the controls for creating, deleting and
renaming pages are natural extensions of the breadcrumb trail, drag
and drop reordering of child pages, etc.
* Provision for columns containing variable numbers of slots; great
when you want to mix text slots, media slots, etc. in a column without
a whole new template for each combination
* Provision for global slots (useful for editable sitewide footer
areas, for instance)

The design certainly owes quite a bit to sfSimpleCMS, while making
quite a few departures from that as well.
