all i can see in the landscape is either:

- paid CMS / Software (ElevatedX, NATS, mechbunny, adent.io)
- "scripts" that was hacked together to perform certain functions (SmartCJ and the like)
- wordpress themes/plugins

is there anything that holds back the programmers in industry from publishing the libraries/modules in github, so someone-else can re-use it vs having to choose over these pre-built CMSes?
