TikiWiki CMS/Groupware (http://tikiwiki.org), the open source, wiki-based content management system continues to be one of the most active projects on SourceForge, consistently ranking in the top 15 in terms of SVN code commits (http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/ran...).

According to Ohloh.net, Tiki is "one of the largest open-source teams in the world, and is in the top 2% of all project teams on Ohloh." (http://www.ohloh.net/p/tikiwiki/factoids/). This diverse and extensive community effort has fueled more than 800,000 downloads (http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/det...) plus countless one-click installations through control panel applications such as Fantastico.

TikiFests
This activity and growth comes on the heels of the recent TikiFest held in New York, NY, USA (http://tikiwiki.org/tikifest). TikiFests are a tradition of the TikiWiki community in which Tiki contributors who usually collaborate online, get an opportunity to meet in person. Future TikiFests are scheduled in Canada, Poland, Brazil, Germany, and the United States. Over 35 TikiFests have been held.

The Impact of Packt's Open Source CMS Awards

On Monday, Packt Publishing announced the five finalists in each category of its 2007 Open Source Content Management System Award.  The five categories are Most Promising, Best PHP CMS, Best Other (Non-PHP) CMS, Best Social Networking CMS, and Overall Winner.  In the finals stage, the public as a whole is eligible to vote for each category through October 26th.  While that may seem like a long time for the polls to be open, I'd encourage you to vote early so that you have no excuse for why your favorite CMS didn't make it to the winners list.

Around this time last year, Packt Publishing announced the "top five" finalists for their award (no separate categories in 2006).  In 2006, those CMS projects that made it to the finalist list included Drupal, e107, Joomla, Plone, and Xoops.  When those five CMS were announced, I chose to double my efforts on covering those applications here at CMS Report.  Although the extra categories this year have brought quite a few more Open Source CMS into the foreground, I still don't see why I couldn't keep most of them on my CMS Focus radar scope.  With 16,000 people nominating their favorite CMS for this award, that amount of generated interest is hard to ignore.  Luckily, I already cover many of the CMS that did make it as a finalist...but there are still many new CMS on that list that will shake things up a bit here at CMSReport.com.
