I use b2evolution for my own blog (dugger.notsoevil.net). It does an okay job and even has a web interface to change the php scripts. I haven't updated it in a while, mostly because I'm not yet comfortable with the server (it's a friend's account and I get limited access). Anyways, there's also plugins apparently, for things like more calendars, etc. And of course, it's open source. Back when I was trying them all out, I came across a nice table describing several of CMS tools and their features.

Sadly, it appears to be somewhat out of date. But it's a great starting point if you're investingating. Perhaps you could make your own chart reflecting today's progress.

I'm thinking of adding a CMS to my server. Anyone use any and which would you recommend. Or should not use a CMS? Pros? Cons? I'd like a CMS that would allow my to hand tweak, or one that doesn't do wierd stuff with the files. I'd like something that uses php.

Also, looking for a simple easy to use calendering system.

I could roll all this myself, but why re-invent if there is something useful.

Admittedly, though, I'm currently in the process of writing my own in Rails.
