"Frog CMS is an open source content management system originally developed by Philippe Archambault. The design decision taken from its start was to use PHP5 as the language for the software, along with a MySQL database backend. It is a port of the Ruby on Rails CMS known as Radiant, although Frog has begun to take its own development direction." -- FrogCMS Wiki Article
