I can second this; the Hubzilla platform brings about an immense amount of promise. It's not so much a traditional CMS as it is an infusion of user-centric features and functions. Functionally speaking, you could describe it as a hybrid between forums, cloud storage, publishing, and social networking.
It is particularly good for building community websites, but works just as well for single-user purposes. As a whole, the system works tremendously well, and is relatively easy to theme.
Let's say hypothetically, the situation of IP law gets far worse in the future, and software companies find a way to successfully use "Intellectual Property" and the legal system to shut down Free Software projects. To make it interesting, let's assume these entities start shutting down Free Software projects left and right.
Assuming that things get that bad, what would happen to Free Software as a whole, and what could the Free Software ecosystem do in order to protect itself from malicious litigation?
