You mean PloneSoftwareCenter? As the name implies, it's Plone-centric, built on Archetypes, and it would probably take quite some time to get it to work on plain CMF. But honestly, I don't see how that would make anything any easier. It's very simple to configure a minimal Plone instance that has only the PSC, a PAS-backed authentication source and very little else. Yes, Plone is a product (in the traditional sense, not the Zope sense) that is built with a lot of components. That doesn't mean that to *use* that product, you need to understand, configure or deal with all those components. mkzopeinstance, tar xzf Plone-2.1.3.tar.gz, tar xzf PloneSoftwareCenter.tar.gz, bin/zopctl start, add PSC, add a Software Center, turn off the content types you don't want... it's like 30 minutes of work with a coffee break.
