Ok, I know I'm answering my own post again, but I've found a very good resource for this kind of info. Just in case anyone is interested, it's at http://www.opensourcecms.com/ They have an extensive, if not exhaustive list of CMS webware projects, and even have an excellent cross project comparison matrix by feature. I'm probably going to try a few out, since there's only a couple in the ports. Among my top candidates are Mambo, geeklog (in ports), drupal (also in ports), opencms, Etomite, and Magnolia. If I find one I really really like, that's not in ports, I may try my hand at submitting and supporting a port. We'll see.
