ExpressionEngine is a flexible, feature-rich content management system that empowers thousands of individuals, organizations, and companies around the world to easily manage their website.
The current available version of ExpressionEngine is 1.6.7 and you can download the free core version at this page, but EllisLab is working on the next release : 2.0.
Here there is a video of the upcoming (in the next months hopefully) new release.
Derek Allard (ExpressionEngine developer) has published some screenshots of the version 2 of ExpressIonEngine.
From my point of view, as developer, the most interesting feature of version 2, is that it is based on CodeIgniter framework. This will give to ExpressionEngine a very solid foundation to extend and create custom applications on it, and if you are a CodeIgniter developer it will be very easy to understand the internals of ExpressionEngine and work with it.
