Mambo fits the PHP/mysql criteria, I believe there may even be an
OScommerce module as well, although I was fairly disappointed with the
eCommerce options "out of the box" when I last looked (a while back now).

It may be over kill for you, but the install is pretty straight forward,
and most of the features can be switched off (or just don't install).

It supports a "news" model, with basic RSS aggregation available. Many
of the 3rd party addons are far better than the bundled versions for
same tasks, guess this is the peril of a modular system, and relatively
slow core product release cycles.

The mark-up out of Mambo is a bit ropey in places, but this should be
fixed with the next release if the rumours are true.
