CMS using CodeIgniter Framework

In an attempt to find a place between rolling our own CMS and using wordpress, we’re looking for a simple and easy to use CMS system. I’ve been happy developing in CodeIgniter for our new http://JoinARace.com project. The development is quite fast after you wrap your head around the structure of CodeIgniters MVC framework. Much easier than WebObjects Java development I did for 10+ years.

Here’s some contenders for a FREE, simple and easy to use CMS system built on the CodeIgniter PHP framework.  I’ll write a follow-up after I analyze them.
