Often they are web applications with ability to post articles, comment on them, attach files, some systems allow voting, supports different frontends and provide flexible search with filters. So I'd like to investigate request-tracker. Request-tracker attracted my attention because while it is a full featured site engine with cms it is implemented in perl, supports web, email, and command-line interfaces. Other systems of that class are similar but are not implemented in perl and often lack support for multiple uis. Also I think publishing software and cmss are more suitable for MJohn than others. But it seems for me that they would need more configuration and code. Though I did not look on them precisely yet. Maybe I miss something. Regards, Aleksey Cherepanov
