Actually, I threw out Sourcelabs content management: Movable Type. Not Open Source. It would be rather hypocritical for me to use it.

I need something that creates static files, as I get slashdotted regularly.

How about blosxom?

Typo might be useful

If you're feeling *really* trendy, and you're looking for an excuse to mess around with Ruby and/or Rails, you might want to take a look at Typo. I've been quite pleased with it recently, and it's super easy to hack.

Typo uses the caching support in Rails to automatically save *.html files to disk. These are then served directly by Apache until such time as Typo purges the cache.

If you get Slashdotted, your server should only smoke a little. :-)

On the other hand, if you have no desire to mess around with Rails, Typo probably isn't worth the effort right now.
