Hello there!

I'm interested to know, before make desicion, what cms will be better.
Features, that are desirable:
- unicode support (I think, that both cms supported it?)
- max quantity of articles on site, what can be managed by cms - which restrictions existing
- better database design - optimized by qty requests to database, when users/admin accessing articles

I have about 500 articles currently, but total number will probably reach 2000. If somebody had experience in using both cms, and there are some pitfalls. For example some secutiry holes?
And of course - maybe, exists third, better choice ;).

Both are pretty much the same but I prefer Joomla as it is more developed and supported and very stable.

dont use drupal if you plan to uninstall it. You need PHP version 3 to run its un install file.

varunrai, thank you for the link. It's really helps a lot. I've found that both cms have support for UTF-8. And Drupal have support for Postgres, that is a good thing. Now I will dig the sources ))

one thing I forgot to mention. There is one website called opensourcecms.com

You can try out all these CMS over there to check which one can be useful for you. Mostly they have all the CMS installed on their server so before actually installing on ur system you can try there also.

Thanks,
Varun

You guys should use Iweb, it is by far the easiest web-making software ever

We're talking about open source CMSes, and not any web making software. And I have used Iweb, and it's harder to use than Drupal. I mean their is basically messy coding with a bad Learning Curve while Drupal has a difficult Learning Curve and at least has decent code.

Joomla has many extensions to integrate forums. I've seen a few for Drupal but not as much as Joomla.

If your hosting with x10, you'll probably use mySQL which doesnt even matter if Postgre is supported or not =/
