Hello As I am now the pain of this list, I continue doing questions. I use a CMS for managing users in the portal I am building. Most people would know what is a CMS, but for the ones that don't know, I tell you: a CMS is a content manager system, basically is a web portal that you can personalize and provide services to manage forums, chat, budylist. etc. This without having to code all. You just have to code to customize some things. This way you avoid to suffer from doing so big thing from scratch, and focus on improving it to your needs.
You would also see some that are CMS Frameworks, those are only for people who are masochist and want to code all. In the WWW there are 2 good pages to find CMS under GPL license: http://www.cmsmatrix.org/ This is for comparing CMS systems. http://www.opensourcecms.com/ This is a demo site of the various CMS avaliable. I've been using Xoops, wich I like 'cos it's easy and modular. I fixed a GPL module that was abandoned, fixed most of its bugs, and I give it back to Xoops community, so they can further develop it. Though it has a bit old-fashioned look. Others are more eye-candy. The best in Xoops is its community of peole, allways very active and helping. I am considering to change to another CMS. The best for me are these: - Xoops - Joomla - e107 What do you use in your servers? Have you been using these in your servers?
