Hi all,

Just popping a note to everyone that we recently released version 2.0.0
of our SilverStripe open source cms.

It was recently featured on the homepage of ajaxian.com, del.icio.us etc
which led to us a small write up at
http://radar.oreilly.com/archives/2007/02/being_delicious.html

In short, its a CMS focused on "web 2.0" usability. We see many CMSs as
having too many interface features, and much like most cellphones that
are overloaded with features in a bid to sell phones, you end up with
something that then becomes unusably complex... it often takes 18 steps
to just the most simple common task, which defeats the whole purpose.

We still do have things like WYSIWIG editors, content-reuse,
history/rollback, drag n drop sitemap editors, but without freaking you out!

It then contains a framework similar to Ruby on Rails or PHP's Cake to
build your website and to extend the CMS, which is how modules like
forums and shopping carts are written.

Have a play at http://demo.silverstripe.com/admin/?oscom
(login as "admin" and "password")

You can then download the source (BSD license) at www.silverstripe.com,
which also has forums, tutorials, examples, et al

Siggy

Claiming that and then providing a screenshot with nested tabs on  
your frontpage is kind of weird, isn't it?

Do you have features for document library? meta-data feature, keyword, controlled vocab, annotation

Features to integrate mailing list?

According to your company site, you have commerce module for sale. Do you have any information on that?  Starting with screenshots

I am starting a service to connect "open-source developers" with clients. I have a few prospects. However, I am going to be solution-neutral.
