ASP .Net CMS Examples?

[JJ]

I want to write my own CMS (or use an opensource one), which is based on
ASP.net without having to choose from the PHP based ones out there.

Is there any examples, software or advice you may have for me?

Thanks,

JJ

There are a lot, the two most popular ones are:

DotNetNuke:
http://dotnetnuke.com/

Rainbow Portal:
http://www.rainbowportal.net/

There's also 2 relevant starter kits:
http://www.asp.net/starterkits/downloadcommunity.aspx
and
http://www.asp.net/starterkits/downloadportal.aspx

Which are more meant to showcase best practice while developing ASP.NET
applications.

Hi JJ,
We are currently also working on our own CMS system in ASP.NET.
There are a quite a lot of other systems to look at for inspiration.

Here are a couple of nice ones:
http://lemoon.se/ (in swedish tho...)
http://www.emagiccms.com/
http://dotnetnuke.com/ <- open source

Two nice php ones are also available
http://drupal.org/
http://www.joomla.org

For a (very!) comprehensive list check out this site:
http://www.cmsmatrix.org/

Btw, I can recommend a good podcast regarding cms systems:

Good luck and happy coding!

The problem with dotnetnuke is that I have to have a compatible hosting
provider don't I?
I really want some component I can add to my own project in visual studio,
then upload to my live server....

DotNet Nuke is highly compatible with providers. I would guess your only
problem would be providers that do not allow any code outside of hte main
web DLL.

Could you clarify what you mean?

Sorry to be so stupid, but I am asking my hoster (I am considering a shared
hosting agreement) but they haven't used DNN before.
What do I need to ask for to enable me to use DNN without their input or
interference?

Thanks,
JJ
