Remember it still requires a PHP application server to run with how exploitable (and often heavy) PHP is - I'd be hesitant to call it 'simple'.
Do you have examples of PHP's exportability and heaviness, or are you just repeating words?
SiteCake: Tiny, simple, flat-file, drag and drop CMS

Well, my use case is neighbour/friend websites (I'm not really a web person, but I "do computers", so I get asked a lot). Buying a $3/month domain with PHP webspace, slapping this and some HTML on it and basically being done is simple for me. I mean, compared to a "real" CMS... YMMV, of course.
Is it really impossible to get Python hosting (or better) for $3/month? I remember that here in Europe, you can get an own virtual machine for roughly $5 to $8 per month, and Python webhosting must be less expensive than that to compete.
To those who downvoted this: Do you care to explain? Did I miss something?

If you buy any webspace it will have PHP installed 99% of the time. There is a huge number of garden-variety webdesigners that server small businesses. These people are used to a combination of PHP + Apache + MySQL + phpMyAdmin. They can install Wordpress on that and know enough JavaScript to modify a gallery script to do what they want.
A Python webspace is much harder to find. Even if they would find one, they could not use it, because online resources for Python are targeted at people that either want to learn to program or already know how to program, not at people that want to use tools as building blocks.

It wasn't me who downvoted you, but if I had to guess why, it would be because administrating a full instance of Linux just to run a CMS is a long way off the ease of dropping a PHP file on shared hosting.

#25Sorry guys, server was overwhelmed by ProductHunt and Hacker News visits. We did demo part 'lean way' so it could not cope with uploaded content. It should work now!

#26It is me or does this feel like WordPress?

#27We wanted to stay simple as possible and use wide spread technologies. So HTML pages for templates, PHP for server side, file system for storage and drag and drop for editing.

Hey how did you get this? Sitecake is not using cake, SQL or aything you've mentioned. Please download Sitecake from our webiste and try again.

Looks more like a configuration issue. The big clue is s/he dropped your code into a sub-directory but s/he's getting error in code not in that sub-directory (i.e. - not your code).
My guess is the docroot is set to /var/www/html with CakePHP server configuration.

Sure, not exactly hard to find though...
