A distinct possibility, but IIRC Slashcode has been in existence for 
longer than PHP Nuke.  It could be that PHP Nuke has cribbed code from 
Slash. *shrug*

See above.  Could be the reverse of what you're proposing.

You're a better man than I.  Every single one of my [Post|PHP]Nuke 
experiences has been marred with difficult upgrades, finnicky templates, 
a distinct lack of documentation and long-way-round-the-horn solutions 
to problems that ought to be easy.

I've been replacing our intranet *Nuke solutions with WP as the CMS.  My 
content creators and communications dept. couldn't be happier.

For the heavier-weight stuff, I've been pondering Mamboserver.
