Hi, im looking for a CMS in Rails and all posts of that kind that i have seen seem outdated... For an application i need to have app-specific parts + content management. I thought of integrating with an existing CMS project in Rails. These would be the requirement i would have for a CMS: Must-have-features: * Rails 2 compatible * Easy integration: should be easy to integrate with other parts of the website that would be developed also in Rails * Stable: should be used in production * Localization support (DB, YAML or GetText) Nive to have features: * WYSIWYG editor * Single sign on I have been looking at these projects: * Radiant * Rubricks (didn''t like the interface) * RCMS (does not seem active since 2007) * Railfrog (does not seem active since 2007) * Comatose (does not seem active since 2007) * XLSuite (active?) * Geego (active?) Do you have any recommendations? Any additional information? Are there any other projects out there worth looking at? Any help or opinion welcome!

To add my 2 cents ... I have enjoyed using Geego. It is not hugely active, but there is a small community of users. It is mostly geared towards small sites. It is especially good when non-technical users are responsible for the translations. Radiant seems to be the way to go if you want something bigger. But when I was looking at CMSes, I had a really hard time with version dependencies of all the radient plugins that I needed. I might get one or two plugins to work with a certain version, but the other plugins would stop working. In the end, Geego offered me everything I wanted in an *almost* out-of-the-box way.

Hi ! We will be releasing a public beta of Zena in a few weeks (start of october). It''s been running in production for nearly two years, we are only releasing a public version now because we wanted to stabilize the templating laguage zafu. There''s a lot of information on http://zenadmin.org. Some features: - no admin interface (in place, WYSIWYG editing) - fully defined behaviour through the xhtml templating language - very easy to transform a static xhtml website into a CMS - groups based access rights, versions, images, etc Gaspard On Mon, Sep 8, 2008 at 3:17 PM, apm <alberto.perdomo-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > Hi, > > im looking for a CMS in Rails and all posts of that kind that i have > seen seem outdated... > > For an application i need to have app-specific parts + content > management.
