My New CMS Thingy

I’ve got a demo up of my new CMS/templating thing. Not sure what to call it yet, but I’m looking for feedback and I want to know if it’s a good idea. I think it’s pretty useful, especially if you think Drupal or similar is overkill for a simple site you’re working on. I also wanted to keep you in control so it doesn’t do a lot for you, and you’re not tied down to the editor. My inspiration came from CMS from Scratch, but after working with it, I didn’t like how much it restricted my freedom, especially when it came to displaying sets. It also didn’t seem very polished.

My version includes files in a similar manner, and has text, html, and set includes. I chose to use YUI for a javascript library because it provided a lot of the functionality I needed out-of-the-box. Anyway, take a look and let me know what you think.
