the current cvs nukes has more modules, look at the project page on the site, we plan a beta soon.

nukes is usable and works well for our website, I think it can handle the load for an intranet very well.

To clarify:
o Inventory: Equipment inventory - serial numbers, user assigned to, location, etc.
o File repository: a more web-centric view of the corporate shared file system (currently based on Microsoft file and directory sharing technology)
o Skills Register: Employee certifications, skills, abilities
o Business Links: Primarily intended for URLs relevant to various departments. e.g. Sales might have links to competitors' websites, Purchasing might have links to our vendors, Facilities might have links to various organizations that provide HVAC or janitorial services.
o Marketplace/swap board: a place where employees can post for sale and wanted-to-buy notices. This can probably be accomplished with a generic forum, but a slightly more specialized app would keep things more consistent. e.g. include item description, price, link the seller to their contact record, etc.
Thanks for the response!

I am trying to do something similar, in fact I found I can get most of what you are looking for in GForge (a fork from the sourceforge.net codebase) http://gforge.org
I will be using Nukes as the Portal infrastructure to integrate some other applications we have, but using GForge as document management system and discussion forum and code repository
Enjoy!
