WHAT IS RADIANT CMS?

Radiant is a no-fluff content management system made for designers and
programmers and is ideal for use on small teams. It is similar to
Movable Type or Textpattern, but is much more than a blogging engine.

Radiant features:

   * An elegant user interface
   * The ability to arrange pages in a hierarchy
   * Flexible templating with layouts, snippets, page parts, and a
     custom tagging language (Radius: http://radius.rubyforge.org)
   * A dynamic extension system
   * A simple user management/permissions system
   * Support for Markdown and Textile as well as traditional HTML
     (it’s easy to create other filters)
   * Operates in two modes: dev and production depending on the URL
   * A caching system which expires pages every 5 minutes
   * Built using Ruby on Rails (which means that extending Radiant is
     as easy as any other Rails application)
   * Licensed under the MIT-License
   * And much more…

I found the new release announcement on the rubyforge forum, http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/150266#663251

There is demo available at http://radiantcms.org/demo/

Radiant CMS is a very elegant and speedy CMS which will very easily let you build easy to maintain silo’d or hierachical websites.

Drupal 6.0 is released

Drupal 6.0 was released and I grabbed it immediately!

From the Drupal Website: “After one year of development we are ready to release Drupal 6.0 to the world. Thanks to the tireless work of the Drupal community, over 1,600 issues have been resolved during the Drupal 6.0 release cycle. These changes are evident in Drupal 6’s major usability improvements, security and maintainability advancements, friendlier installer, and expanded development framework. Further, from bug fix to feature request, these issues follow-through on the Drupal project’s continued commitment to deliver flexibility and power to themers and developers.”

I’ve ran the upgrade after not turning off my theme. Big mistake! So do follow the upgrade guide!

After that little hiccup, the upgrade went smooth except for the xml sitemap module. It is tagged in the 6.x series but it is not production ready yet.

Here is the full announcement of Drupal 6.0. http://drupal.org/drupal-6.0
