It seems to me that when the developers of a product break from a
corporation to build what they are passionate about, something good
usually results.
I've played with both and found they simply include too much
administration and too many options for the clients I work with and so
I built my own. I found that the more advanced features I included
never really got much use anyway - oh well.
Anyway, it sounds like your requirements might find a good home in
either Mambo or Joomla.
You might check out
http://www.opensourcecms.com/
There are demos you can play with for both systems and quite a few
comments from other users.
You might also check out Drupal, XOOPS, and Xaraya.
If anything, download the source - emulate the good - improve on the
bad and then roll your own.
