I am tasked to research and evaluate a long overdue CMS system for our dept within a large software company. For the most part we need a system that has workflows and the ability to publish static content to a specified location (app server, cdn etc...). We aren't interested in a typical CMS that let's you create templated websites. Our developers will still be creating our applications in their preferred language and will ideally pick up the static content that will populate areas of our websites from the CMS to avoid code deployments for every little content change.
Another department is doing this using Teamsite. Aside from Teamsite can anyone here recommend a CMS? I'm not too impressed with their interface (and their price tag). I found a product called Ingeniux that does what we need (multi format output) but I haven't heard much about them and need to demo their system.
While this is our main requirement, other requirements would be - average price tag (free to $20k, rather than +$100k a year), self hosted (not a hosted or cloud solution), and straightforward setup and integration process (ideally we don't want to hire a consulting company to stand up the servers etc...).
Thanks.
You could
put some of that money to fund one of this open source projects
ask the author to do custom work for you
allocate time for one of your coders to learn the technology and implement and maintain the tool you need by an open-source project.
I used, with satisfaction, for some of my work:
Ruby
NANOC
Jekyll
Webby
Middleman
Ruhoh
...And a bunch of other solutions from this big list at Nanoc website.
Node.js + Coffescript
DocPad
Also try this lightweight cms using ruby and google drive nice alternative.

Do you know any good tools to support the translation of .arb files?
It's a standard for Flutter and since Google Translator Toolkit will be sunset soon (https://support.google.com/translatortoolkit/answer/9462068) we're searching for a good solution to translate/gather our translations
Edit (June 2020): There's great new open source project called Arbify. This is a self-hosted tool to manage multiple translation projects focused on Flutter. You can edit arb files and fetch them via Dart package tool.
Aside from that some services like POEditor have announced basic support for ARB too.
At the moment the best support for arb files is on Localizely. However, this is a paid service and has strict limits on a free version. It allows to export arb translation files with plurals and placeholder support. It doesn't support genders, though.
There is also one simple web editor and one desktop editor (Babel) that support arb files.
Crowdin supports .arb:
https://support.crowdin.com/supported-formats/
It is also able to pull the data from a Git repo and send Pull Requests on GitHub.
However, when I used it in 2018 there was a problem of ##last_modified attribute being updated without any other changes to the translation files, causing lots of churn in PRs. By that time, they were reluctant to improve the situation (based on email conversation with their support), so we resorted to manual edits.
https://localise.biz/ allows 2000 translations. Which I assume are 1000 strings in 2 languages or ~666 strings in 3 languages and so on. Which is more than https://localizely.com/ 150 strings

I have been evaluating DNN over a few months. It has it´s pros and cons. I find it hard to evaluate systems by reading articles and don´t have time to check them all on my own.
What are your general feeling about this?
As my background is with .net, which system would you choose?
Also, does anybody know if these pages at stack overflow is based on a CMS and if so which?
Since everyone would rather spend more time criticizing your post than answering it, I'll give it a shot.
You have a few options with building a portal. Either go with an established, open source portal (like DNN), look into some paid solutions or build your own.
Open Source - I've worked with DNN and MojoPortal. DNN is a little slower and has a few more requirements to develop skins and modules, but it has A LOT more features and some of the free/paid modules are really cool. Overall, DNN wins here, but if you don't need a large portal and you want to keep development really simple, MojoPortal might be better. MojoPortal has a few nice features that makes it easier to configure.
Open Source (Other) - There are tons of them out there. Orchard is one I'm thinking of because I'm interested in MVC. But, it's still young in terms of features and support.
Umbraco - I can't really speak to this because I have not used it, but it does have some popularity.
Build it - This is an option and allows the most flexibility, but it takes a lot of time and so many features that are built into these portals could be left out. Role based access, page management, page/module permissions, downloadable modules, profile/profile properties, file management, skinning, acct management, menu management, event logs, etc
I left out non .NET solutions like ones based on PHP, Grails, etc because you are a .NET developer. There is plenty out there, but sticking to .NET will help speed your development up.... unless you are just wanting to learn something new.
Hope this helps.

Besides impressing benchmarks,
does anyone really uses G-WAN web server?
(except of cource gwan.ch and trustleap.com)
G-WAN is a freeware, that means that people are not under the obligation of paying a license to use it for commercial purposes.
Having participated to write some of their code, I am aware of Web sites using G-WAN for different applications platforms:
auctions
advertising
yellow pages
social network
geographic maps
multimedia streaming
trading.
But this is merely my personal experience. I must say that G-WAN has allowed me to do things that could not be done with other servers like:
using cheap virtual servers where I would have had to use dedicated servers
using the same Web server to create applications in different languages
creating applications which rely on different programming languages
test code modifications without having to redeploy packages or modify configurations
-etc.
G-WAN, at least for me, has been a game-changer.
I do not understand the comment of "Virtualeyes" since my customers did not pay a dime to the G-WAN author. I just paid him 149 CHF, not because I was obliged to do it but rather because I wanted to thank him for the hard work.
By the way, that's Linus Torvalds, not "Linus Torvolds".

Can anyone recommend a simple, lightweight CMS gem or plugin for Rails 3 that can easily be embedded into an existing app?
I think you might find this useful: https://github.com/comfy/comfortable-mexican-sofa
It's specifically built to be a CMS plugin for your existing Rails 3 app.
Sorry for the shameless plug :)
I found Refinery CMS to be easily emebddable into my app (with some modifications).

BrowserCMS: Humane Content Management for Rails
BrowserCMS is a general purpose, open source Web Content Management System (CMS), written in Ruby on Rails. It is designed to support three distinct groups of people:
Non-technical web editors who want a humane system to manage their site, without needing to understand what HTML or even Rails is.
Designers who want to create large and elegantly designed websites with no artificial constraints by the CMS.
Developers who want to drop a CMS into their Rails projects, or create CMS driven websites for their clients.
Rich CMS is another: https://github.com/archan937/rich_cms
There's also CopyCopter for Rails from Thoughtbot: https://copycopter.com but it's more for managing copy than managing full page content
Best CMS till date
MCMS
gem install mcms
rails g mcms install
please check it

My shop is trying to formalize the release management process for an OSS product we maintain (edit: using SVN for version control). It's a sort of a web development framework/CMS kind of thing, as in it's a product that other projects are built on top of. This makes clear communication about the versioning system especially critical for developers that are using the tool.
I'm hoping to find some examples of how best to graph this system so we can communicate it better internally and with outside developers. I know there are lots of standards and best practices around versioning, so I'm hoping this extends to some sort of visual vocabulary as well. As one example, there is a nifty graph at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versioning#Software_Versioning_schemes. Are there any guides out there on how these sorts of things should be designed?
First, if it is an OSS project, chances are the versioning system ism a Distributed one (DVCS)
If so, then this branching model can be of interest.
The idea is to control what you want to integrate from remote repos.

I need this too. The built-in graph in Tortoise SVN is too busy, but I've made use of it. But for soemthing like VonC's picture above, I think I'm going to go with a dry erase board and colored markers. I'll hang it outside my cube. Annotate it with revs, dates, sprints and projects, and we'll be all set.
