PROPS
PROPS is a seldom updated PHP/MySQL CMS designed specifically for periodicals such as newspapers and magazines. Includes syndication. Open Source, GPL.
From the website (as of May 2009):
PROPS is an open, extensible Internet publishing system designed specifically for periodicals such as newspapers and magazines who want to publish online, either exclusively or as an extension of their print publication. PROPS is written entirely in PHP using a MySQL database backend, and is free software released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
WHAT'S NEW
26 September 2008 - The PROPS project is still very much alive and kicking. Don't be fooled by the lack of updates on this page - most activity is on the mailing list. PROPS 0.8 is out, and is a major improvement over 0.7. It's faster, and has cleaner code and more features. It also now has support for localization, and has already been translated into several languages.
I dunno, but I feel a little fooled. Who knows, it might be worth a look.
