I've successfully installed Horde from CVS, along with all the modules. 
It's very impressive, and configurable to say the least.

However, I was under the impression that it was a generic framework for
websites, not specifically groupware.  From first glance, it reminds me
of phpGroupWare.

I'd like to know how and if it is possible to configure Horde for
public/non-groupware related sites.  (Thus, bypassing the login
requirement)

It would be nice if one could simply set a default application as the
front page, and the system would provide menus to accessing the other
installed modules.
