Both are pretty much the same architecture (MVC everything abstracted, multilingual etc) but one is specifically geared for php4 and the other php5.1.2 and above. Both are GPL licenced and make heavy use of pear objects. You can download the KEWL.NextGen application, built on the PHP4 framework, KINKY (Yes its a recursive acronym), or go for the less mature, but much more fun PHP5 framework (Chisimba - A Chechewu word for the wooden pole framework used to build a traditional African house). Both are products of Africa, made in Africa as part of a collaborative network of over 16 African Universities and 60 developers all over the continent. If you contribute to this project, you are not only sharing code, but building skills in Africa! :) Both projects can be downloaded from http://avoir.uwc.ac.za (CMS module on KINKY) and the PHP5 stuff can be accessed at http://5ive.uwc.ac.za/app/ . We will be making a first public pre-release of this in the next couple of days... Both projects have very active developer and user mailing lists. Let me know if you need some more information! --Paul
