I installed WebGUI over a year ago for a friend who runs a tattoo shop and I wasn’t satisfied with neither the installation nor the use of it.
Before the site got live it was replaced by another CMS, dunno which one.

One thing about Bricolage, Krang and WebGUI, is that none of them are Catalyst-based. Sometimes this isn't an issue and sometimes it is.
For while I've been thinking it would be nice to have a Cat-based CMS with multiple features built on top of a platform. The platform can include basic things like Authn, Authz, Sessions, a basic user schema and pre-built HTML. The pre-built HTML can include controllers/templates/etc for registration, login/logout, openid, etc. Then on top of the platform you can have plug-and-play features like forums, blogs, photo galleries, surveys etc. If it was built the right way, you could have your choice of forums, etc. You can also only load the features that you want. I'm not sure how easy this would be to do but I think it would be neat.
