About the same as the number of C window managers? ;)
You have a valid point, so I've had a quick attempt to justify this. A
quick package search for "cms" and "content management" in all suites
gives 8 distinct, self-described CMS systems in Debian. 5 of these are
written in PHP.

For those which have entries, I've compared them on cmsmatrix.org and
the most impressive entry is WebGUI, which is made in Perl. However, the
(somewhat arbitrary) cmsmatrix feature count is still +4 in favour of
ocPortal. Also, for those who are into it, ocPortal is under the
Affero-style CPAL license, which is the reason I got involved in the
project.

Thanks,
