I don't understand why people keep saying something like "premade CMSs may work, but it will never be as good as something homemade" when all the software being discussed is open source. You can take any of these "premade CMSs" and do whatever you like with them. In fact, all the better CMSs (not PHP nuke) with good APIs and module/plugin resources are designed to do just that. They take all the basic CMS stuff (database, session, user, etc management) out of the developer's hands and just lets them write the unique application they want to write.
