WebGUI

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WebGUI is an open source content management system written in Perl and released under the GNU General Public License.

The system permits non-technically savvy users to arrange content in pages and layouts, containing 'wobjects' (applets) which permit website visitors to view and interact with various types of data from basic Articles to full-blown Content Submission Systems and custom appliciations -- the system was actually originally built as an application framework by creator Plain Black Software to support their customer development work, but probably a majority of current independent users of it utilize it as a CMS with the stock modules with which it ships.

In late 2005 and early 2006, the system underwent a major metamorphosis, targeting a release of version 7.0 which occurred in mid-2006; the current version as of April 2007 is 7.3.14.
