i'm trying to find an "open source" app that would provide me with user
admin/site admin functionality. i've been playing with a few of the open
source cms apps to get a feel for how they implement this kind of
funtionality. i could rip out what i need, but it might be painful for
something like mambo, given it's interconectivity.
anybody have pointers to an app that you can use as a user admin/site admin
function and tie it into a website/app...
Try here for a lot of CMS packages some of which might be easier to modify or some which might do exactly what you want...

And check zend.com in their dev section for apps/scripts under the "content management" section.
