What's Fresh...

The MODx Ajax CMS and PHP Application Framework brings plenty to the table, with more on the way, including:

* Strong Web Standards Support โ€“ MODx does not force you into awkward and confusing blocks-this or channels-that templating engines or layout rules. You can build XHTML 1.1 Strict sites just as easily as a tag-soup laden table layout. MODx is the dream CMS for CSS designers.
* Web 2.0 Features (yes, that means Ajax) โ€“ MODx is the first free PHP CMS to offer an API that fully supports Web 2.0 Ajax technology thanks to MooTools. Expect to see this grow more and more into our manager over time, but you can make use of it today in your own custom applications including live search, web effects, Ajax communications and more.
* PHP Application Framework โ€“ a flexible API and a event model that allows to override how the core behaves means that you get both tremendous flexibility, but also the ability to customize the solution to your needs and a simple upgrade path.
* Works in your favorite browser โ€“ and yes that means Safari! You can manage your websites from anywhere in the world with an internet connection and IE 5.5+, Safari 1.3+, Firefox 1.0+.
* Graphical Installer โ€“ it's now easier for less experienced users to get up and running fast with a step-by-stop online installer.
* Improved Rich Text Editors โ€“ All MODx RTEs are optional plug-ins, making for a smaller base download. TinyMCE ships out of the box. Adding new RTEs to MODx is simple with FCKeditor available now as an optional download and Textile, Markdown and widgEditors on their way.
* Better handling of aliases and menu indexes โ€“ Search Engine Friendly aliases are automatically created from the page titles and the system will check for alias conflicts before saving a page. Reordering your pages with Ajax-enabled drag and drop indexing.
* Robust CSS Menu Builder โ€“ Menus made from ULs are ready to go out of the box. Whether you want something simple as a bulleted list for a sidebar or as complex as Big John's deluxe menus complete with CSS "hover zones", MODx has you covered.
* Improved Meta-tag and keywords controls โ€“ consider MODx your #1 free Search Engine Optimization CMS. MODx helps your SEO efforts by making it easier to adjust meta-content of your site on a per-page basis.
* Separate Manager and Web User sessions โ€“ simplify your testing and development workflow.
* Improved Document Parser and Error handling โ€“ build better custom applications with a more robust API and greatly improved error handling and reporting inside the manager.
* Custom Content Types โ€“ use MODx documents to manage your linked Style Sheets, Images and Javascript. Transform them into XML, PDF, Excel or Word documents with snippets and this handy new feature.
* Bug fixes and usability tweaks โ€“ a more polished and robust product, bringing us to the home stretch to the official project launch and 1.0 release.

their latest stable version is 0.9.6.1 (not even 1.0.x) and judging by the site there probably isn't that large of a community around them yet, which also means there won't be that many templates out for it. the screenshots look interesting though.
