Citizen journalism website builder | NOWCast SA

NOWCast, a citizen journalism project, needs a good looking website with a powerful and flexible CMS.
The project is co-funded by the Knight Foundation and the Alamo Area Community Information System, under the auspices of the San Antonio area Foundation.
I've described some of the attributes we're looking for here: http://nowcastsa.wordpress.com/2009/07/07/choosing-digital-printing-press/
We would love to hear proposals immediately from developers who are enthusiastic about exploring new ways to build community and journalism.
Our launch target is Sept. 9.
Our budget is small.
But there will be fame and glory when we succeed, and we will succeed!
