hakyll ( http://jaspervdj.be/hakyll/ ) is a nice alternative for those of us who like haskell or just functional programming in general.

It features a DSL and integration with the awesome pandoc (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/) project.

Hakyll is pretty widely used, as well (at least it seems that way to me, maybe that's just my confirmation bias). I was surprised not to see it on the list in the OP.

Right now, I'm giving nanoc (http://nanoc.stoneship.org/) a try. My goal is to leave WP behind.

But there are some things, that boggle me. But, i do this to learn and so it is quite interessting to research my problems, till I find a solution. And if I ever get stuck, the help on the google group is quite great.

So as it is not mentioned in the original posting, I thought I'd add it.

Check out their IRC channel. The group in there are quite helpeful. The main author is always willing to help.

I wrote a very simple one called MCMS that runs on Node.js and RingoJS (Rhino on the JVM): https://github.com/olegp/mcms

I can't tell you how many blogging platforms I've hopped through. I've got posts on a trillion domains and twice as many engines. Reading lists like these make me want to try them all now! What is it about site generators and blogging engines that makes people so fickle?
