I agree that indycore sounds like it could fit 
with the alternatives project too.  I can't 
believe we still have all these options after all 
these months.  Today my gut still says we should 
go with drupal because that's what we decided 
previously but I certainly waivered on that with 
the thought of the indy techies going with 
cake-php..... aw, listen to me.  I have no idea 
what I'm talking about.  And yet I keep talking.  Hmmm.
