Textpattern
Dean Allen of Textism is about to unleash his homegrown CMS, Textpattern, upon the world. Since I’ve grown quite tired of the template system of MovableType, I’m following this with great interest.
I’ve been thinking about (once again) redesigning the site, and the constant rebuilding with MT annoyed me to no end the last time. Textpattern is generated dynamically on the fly, so any changes to templates are instant.
Textpattern has an impressive list of features considering that this will be the first public release, and his Textile text formatting system is pure genius.
The only thing holding me back (well, besides the fact that Textpattern hasn’t been released yet) is the possibility of importing all my entries from MT into Textpattern, but I’m sure the LazyWeb™ will solve that.
