I've got a little side project brewing that I'm looking for a CMS for.
Main considerations are that it is lightweight and secure without needing frequent updates (it WILL be targeted).
I should just hand code HTML but I'm too lazy to keep links updated these days.
The content will be somewhere between a blog and a wiki.
I will post these because they've been in my watchlist for a few years now. But I have no experience with them.

There were 4-6 blogging scripts that use flatfiles instead of mysql when I looked ~3 years ago. I tested them all out and picked one or two but never put them into use. I plan to soon though for some new projects.
Pivotx and flatpress come to mind. Flat press was last updated a year ago so that's out. Pivotx last updated Aug 25 this year, minor security update. There are more, maybe newer options and I'll be investigating.
Pivotx was tops in my cms bookmarks at one time. I don't know why i dropped them but, I agree, def worth a look.
Thanks all. Some good starting points there.
Pivotx looks pretty nice, thanks.
Some nice options above, but all possibly overkill for my needs. Is happily forgo 90% of the features for being inherently more secure without frequent updates.
Maybe I should just stick to html

See my posts at the end of this thread - haven't tried any of these, but since they work by generating them locally and pushing them out via rsync or git or something, they shouldn't be "hackable" in the sense that they shouldn't be executable.

At the very least, I'd write a site template in php and do the header/footers/nav as includes
Paranoia has gotten the better of me on this one. I'm probably going for desktop editor and PHP includes for the nav. I'll just keep the structure flat and crawl the site periodically for broken links. The main concession to security beyond that will be not being tempted to add any of my dodgy code to the site.
