Are there any decent open-source multi-tenant CMS's out there?

Solution
Plone sounds like it'd do what you want.
It's written in Python, on top of Zope, and supports multiple distinct sites (with distinct and/or shared users, groups, styling). Extra functionality is added through 'products'; there are a number of Free extensions and it's quite easy to write your own too.
Problem
We're looking for a CMS that we can use as the basis for a new product we're rolling out. As it's principally a content based thing, we need to base everything on a CMS, but there's a few things we need: - As we're supporting tens - hundreds of users, we ideally need a multi-tenant CMS (single shared code base), that can support different designs per site - As we're selling in functionality, we need something that will let us deploy a new 'module' and switch it on/off on a per site basis - We prefer stuff that is open source (PHP or Rails, that sort of thing) Before I consider building something, is there anything out there that's any good?
