Yes, exactly. You can download the latest PHP-Nuke sources and have a test 
installation up very quickly.

Ditto.

After some googling and testing I settled on Geeklog, and it is doing the 
job for my small-time personal site, but I am not married to it. 
(geeklog.net) It is probably not robust enough if you need a very flexible, 
generalized CMS. It's more a weblog/portal with plugins for other stuff 
like file management.

If Scott or anyone else draws any conclusions from their own testing, 
please post!
