Thundercat
Brian Donovan is creating an interesting MySQL and PHP based site management tool called Thundercat. He's using it for his new blog/portfolio lophty (you may know him from Kumo), and it looks to have some neat features, such as, a redirect/http get request to monitor link rot and actually have the chance to do something about it for once, and also auto-publishing of rss feeds by category. Eventually it will be released here under gpl.

I still think people should talk about CityDesk more. I really like it.Not exactly germaine to the conversation, as it's a commercial rather than hand-rolled open source app, but still way cool...

We'll talk about it when we get around to it, I suppose - Joel (on software) is indeed a rock star - though I had no idea what CityDesk was for (and still don't - is it a cms?)4. April 23, 2002 02:02 PM

I was thinking of posting this exact same info, Nate. Thanks for beating me to it - it has to do with my being super excited earlier comment about people rolling their own. Another home grown cms/blogging system that's looking interesting is the soon to be released Postmaster (screenshot) from Dan at Hive Logic. He's thrown us some tasty XML-RPC and Java oriented hints on his blog recently.
