There is also PostNuke, another open source and free CMS.
http://www.postnuke.com A list of its features is at
http://forums.postnuke.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=FAQ&file=index&myfaq=
yes&id_cat=40#q268 . The website of STC Chicago looks pretty spiffy I think
(http://www.stc-chicago.org) and we use PostNuke. But I doubt that PostNuke
is as easy to use as Nvu.

Nvu is an excellent, free, open-source HTML editor with a very good
WYSIWYG mode. Users can publish updates to the site directly from
Nvu. http://nvu.com

A non-technical but reasonably intelligent user can learn to use Nvu
quickly; if they can handle a word processor, they can handle Nvu.
You'll need to give them a little training on how to upload the file
within Nvu once they update it; that's about it.
