pligg, the open source content management system that let’s you create socially driven sites like digg, is up for sale. included in the sale is the domain name and the website, and the sourceForge account where you can download the cms from. pligg has been controversial not only because of how it replicates digg but also because of internal troubles.

here’s a snippet from the official email confirming that the site is on the market:

The Pligg community has grown larger than ever expected, with over 10,000 registered users sharing and trading tips, more than 60,000 Sourceforge downloads and 2 IRC rooms that are active 24/7. It’s become an extremely large project and community to manage. We all have day jobs and struggle to find enough time to keep up the pace.
