Throw http://slashcode.com/ on that list as the source for the source for 
SLASH (the slashdot code).  Slashdot and Mason give you something on the 
order the same functionaltiy as Zope (written in Python).  Slash requires 
MySQL for the database part. (Frontier does databse stuff internally 
IIRC).

SLASH doesn't run on the Mac, and I don't expect that it could be easily 
made to.  We'd need a completely different "Slashdot-Like Application for 
Macintosh" (call it "SLAM"), for folks running MacOS servers.  I'm 
waiting for a threaded MacPerl first.

I don't know if MASON has even been TESTED on the MacOS.  As far as I can 
tell, it doesn't actually RELY on Apache and mod_perl, although that's 
the prefered usage.
