I hope I will not be starting a holy war here but I would like to get opinions on open source CMS packages that are available. I would like to use it for a non-governement website. My needs are simple. The CMS should be user friendly and will allow the staff to update information by themselves. It should also have a members discussion feature to attract regular visitors.

Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Holden

There are lots of CMS systems that support basically what you want. Take a look at http://www.opensourcecms.com/ to testdrive several without having to install and configure them yourself.

I found this site really useful - I am trying e107.

I've been playing with various CMS's. Of course there is no right or wrong answer to which is best. :)

I've settled on geeklog (www.geeklog.net).

drupal.org and xoops.org are both good too. I haven't played with the Nukes.
