Around the same time there was CNET's tool which became a commercial CMS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vignette_StoryServer

StoryServer was interesting, its one of those things that in at least one way was ahead of its time. It actually generated static HTML files instead of doing straight pulls from a db. It's "dynamic" nature was actually basically a 404 handler where if you hit the URL for a story and there wasn't a cached html doc it would then generate one from the db, write it to the filesystem and then output the page.
