web page system recommendations

is there any comparing of (free) web page systems?
(wps = something can make page in fuctionality say similar to codeguru - see next)
any recommendations, experiences, opinions?
thanks

i'm looking for something like this:
probably gpl, php and mysql solution
support for article database (title, subtitle, text, author, modif date, ...), article categories (maybe multiply selection)
comments for articles, general message boards, mail notifications
author accounts, user acounts, admin accounts (name, password, hidden email, public short profile text), anonymous viewing
the best keep all in one system (= if possible do not combine just publishing system with just messageboard one)
non-english language users (f.e. will want to make search with or without non-english characters (á should be equal to a))

http://www.php-nuke.org
http://www.mamboserver.com
http://www.phpbb.com

Well, personally, PHPBB is a nice web forum host. I like there forum and decided to download it. If want to run your own webserver, you can make your own and do it without ads. If you want free, there will always be ads involved.

You can use Google to search for " free php mysql hosting".

thanks for reply
(hope understand you well you comment two cases: phpbb is nice message forum system, free webhosting usualy means adds)
i'm searching for something to install and configure (one day maybe modify if open-source) at my webserver

Maybe I am just blind but I would say that you answered your own question with the links in your first post.

Then for what exactly are you searching? You already found a forum. You already have a web server. If you have a forum, you already have PHP and a SQL server? What do you want?

want some comments from experienced users who can compare mambo with phpnuke or any other systems (i started with A but after time i moved to B because ...)

But finally you should test severall systems and decide yourself.

thanks for your reply,
linked notes about readable mambo code are pleasant

in fact now i'm somewhere between mamboserver.com and phprs.cz
(f.e. because they have my language version)
combined with phpbb.com or phorum.org

seems i will need to administrate two products together
(for page client) maybe with different "look and feel"
(for admin maybe with two separate user databases)

probably i will try for every new artile create new forum thread with one entry containing link to article and assigned to article's author (hope one day with "automated solution")
