My latest Open Source project is what I am calling a Web Portico, which is a small (tiny) Web Portal without need for a database.

I wanted a site that had similarites to PHPNuke but I found it too complicated to customize and modify. O, sure, there are "themes" and such, but further modification required a great understanding of the core of programming model, and I was having trouble figuring it all out. (That I had to modify an SQL record to change an HTML menu was the last straw that caused me to abandon it.) That was a while ago so things may have changed -- and I do not mean to 'dis PHPNuke, because it is a cool thing -- just not suited for me.

So I have been fooling around with my own PHP fired site. Can be found here: http://www.vsy.cape.com/~jennings/

It is like a blog/article/feedback site that is really, really, really small in amount of PHP code used. It stores content as text files, not SQL records. It does not allow "users" but does allow for user comments.

Well, it has kept me busy these past few months of my recovery.
