I think there's two streams to this thread.

Are there good existing open source projects that can serve as decent examples 
of how a good Catalyst application looks?

Why is the website so out of date?

As for the former, there's not a lot of people actively maintaining the site.  
We probably have more content there then we can rationally manage given our 
current contributorship.  I do hope we can come together and find a way to have 
a smaller and more streamlined site, but right now I personally don't have time 
for it, and the time I do have I'd rather put into development of new 
capacities, such as the websockets and evented stuff we are doing for the next 
release, and so forth.  That shouldn't stop someone else from stepping up 
though and I'd be happy to help out if such a person of group did.

We have been trying to put together more examples of Catalyst code, and you if 
look at the catalyst github org (https://github.com/perl-catalyst/) things are 
starting to show up there.  It will take time to get more quality there but I 
think it will happen.

And yes, I think most people using Catalyst are building custom website 
applications for companies, stuff that doesn't have easily broken out bits like 
generic CMSs and so forth.  I think most people using Catalyst prefer to craft 
code to a solution rather than take an existing tool, like a CMS or generic 
blogging tool and bend it to fit a business case.
