    I am a small time freelancer, and am looking for a simplistic CMS that still has a web interface for the end-user.

    scenario: customer wants to be able to edit text content, but not anything else. the developer (me) wants control the theme, the template, the nav items ect.

    so, initially, I build the site and enter all the original content (in the best case, all the data is stored flat-file-style, but not imperative) and then later, the customer can control just the content inside of one markup element (i.e. <div id="content"></div>)

    I know I could build this myself in python or something, but it seems like someone out there has already put it together, I can't be the only one who wants to do this.

    thanks,
    -sjh

    Simplelog.net Is a nice CMS. It is relatively simple as the name suggests.

    Joomla is relatively simple. Wordpess is probably as simple as it is going to get.

    You may want to look at CMS from Scratch. It's new, but I tried it and I think it's kind of cool.
