Hey everyone!
Introducing LangCMS! An easily mod-able content management system. It is still under development but you can get a sneak peek at my new CMS by clicking the 'LangCMS' link off to the left.
LangCMS currently features its own template system with tags, and programmable loops for result sets. It features in-context editing for news, and built-in localization. Though you can't see it, the administration is there for news, users, bug tracking and backup. Many more features are under development!
If you'd like to contribute to LangCMS and learn more about it you can register and contact me through PMs.
While doing a multiple functioning website for a mobile platform, namely the iPod I noticed quite a few things that may help you in your mobile endeavors.

For instance, if the website you are creating is meant for a wide variety of mobile devices its a good idea to know the limitations of those devices. Its also a good idea to know their browser string. You can incorporate different style sheets for different phones if you notice discrepancies in testing.
