Package: Multi-CMS
System name: multicms
Type: non-GNU

Description:
This content management system (CMS), like many others, aims to provide an easy 
interface for website administrators to provide and update content for their 
website.  It will address two particular features that (as far as I know) are 
not available in any other CMSs.

1) complete multi-lingual support.  for example, an article will have a 
corresponding spanish, english, and german version.  Author, date, etc will be 
the same, but all content will be available in multiple locales.  Similarly for 
polls, events, and other content.

2) support for multi-domain website systems.  if 2 or more websites are hosted 
on the same server, certain portions of content may be shared between the 
sites, yet each site may have unique features, content and design.

Much design techniques will be borrowed from Drupal (drupal.org).  Drupal 
appears to be a very simple, yet powerful and flexible CMS.  However, due to 
the nature of the 2 special features of this CMS, a complete database 
refactoring would be necessary to make a branch of Drupal that supported said 
features.

Other Software Required:
php, any database system (mysql, postgresql, etc), webserver (e.g. apache)
