You might want to have a look at e107. AFAIK it's released under the GPL and is PHP based. There are addons available for things like calendars etc. I've not used it extensively but what I have used was pretty good. Other than that others which come to mind are Joomla and Drupal (although I haven't used either although, hey the LUG site is now on Drupal so you're more likely to get some responses on this).I am the webmaster of a small independent school, which means the administrator asks me to put this on, or that that off the website and I edit the relevant files in vim and upload them to their server using gftp. Which is nice in a geeky way, but unnecessarily complicated. So I'm looking for a CMS that enables the administrator to make all the basic changes herself. (I don't think she knows HTML, but she's not computer illiterate either.) I was thinking of using Wordpress, which I'm quite familiar with and which requires little effort to be used in a non-blog environment, but I suppose it's not ideal for a site that mostly consists of static pages. So I was wondering what would be more suitable. In particular, it would be great if the CMS has a tool that lets you manage calendars, where events disappear automatically off the website once the event has finished. Any suggestions? Thanks. Martijn.
