The answer depends on which part of the Sharepoint hairball you want to 
replace... Sharepoint is the App equivalent of Active Directory - a bunch of 
unrelated technologies bastardized and thrown together in one app... 

If you look for a portal, use zope, postnuke or any of the other thousand 
portals out there... if you look for colaboration on text documents you have 
to go with a wiki implementation. If you're just looking for a place to share 
docs the way you have it in sharepoint the answer is unfortunately doesn't 
exist... 

What exactly are you trying to do?

Peter.
