CaveCMS
This something I've been keen on trying out for quite a while. I'm currently in the process of writing a CMS in Python, so far the name has been decided as CaveCMS. Don't ask why.
I'll be developing this at my own pace: admittedly I do have a lot on my plate at the moment, but this will get done as I slowly progress through it. Once it's in a usable state I'll put up the source on a scm repository, as well as a demo.
CaveCMS uses Flask as its web framework; the variety of extensions as well as Jinja made it a great choice to write the CMS in. For the design, I'll use Bootstrap with the "United" swatch from Bootswatch. I won't be using any (if any) Habbo assets since I want to release the whole thing under an open source license (MIT).
Screenshots so far:

Not much, I know. The design isn't (currently) something I'm focusing on.

I'll keep this thread update as I go along. Advice, feedback or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
