I can tell you that this article is inaccurate. The author says Joomla has a built-in forum. Joomla does NOT. He says the SEO plugin is encrypted. Joomla is GPL, so where's the encryption. What is he referring to here, the SEF? That is definitely not encrypted. Most people who knock Joomla haven't looked at it since 1.0, when it was Mambo. I don't know why he's calling it a fractured community. Most people using Joomla in 2011 don't even know there is a Mambo. Mambo has gone the way of phpNuke. It's off the map. Their last security announcement was 05-09-2009. ________________________________ From: Greg Lara To: NYPHP SIG: Joomla Sent: Sun, April 3, 2011 8:28:11 PM Subject: Re: [joomla] Drupal vs Joomla/Mambo vs WordPress: An Experienced Developer?s Perspective(?)

This Joomla/WordPress/Drupal Thread is just a mindless exercise and? waste of time. I use all three Content Management Systems (CMS) and can see a practical argument for using each one for specific applications. In other words, not one CMS is the blue ribbon winner. I have several mid to small size public library customers that would never be able to support Drupal and see why they like Joomla CMS. While, I see larger Academic libraries using Drupal because they have an IT department that can assist? in the management of the site. There are many more arguments to support this idea that I will not belabor you with. Television News and Politics make us think that the world is black and white. Isn't the world much more interesting because we are so different and so alike? And, isn't the world of computers stronger when we have alternative choice and not monopolies?

We had a good crowd, including three new faces. It's great to see more people using Joomla. Among the high lights: the lightning round, where questions were asked and answered involving Joomla 1.6 adoption and Amazon's S3 service. Elin Waring gave a great tutorial on how to create a plug-in to add additional fields in Joomla 1.6's native contact form. Extra thanks to Scott for ordering the pizza and Stuart for bringing up the Poland Spring.

Message-ID: Hi all, I have been following this thread for a couple years now, and though I haven't responded much, it has been a great help in my own pursuit of becoming a better developer with Joomla. As a developer, things are moving much faster now with many opportunities to pursue, but I am finding that I cannot handle all of it myself. I was wondering if there any other developers on this thread who would be interested in partnering to explore larger scale project opportunities or doing contract work to help me implement a few projects coming on the table now, as well as a number of them that are coming up. I tend to focus on small (sometimes very small) business and start-ups, in addition to the occasional mid-size organizations. My projects tend to range from basic/informational sites all the way to rich media, commerce and social networking projects, and sometimes all of the above. I usually handle all of the development, as well as a lot of the design myself, but I am at the point where I can't personally implement the amount of opportunities that are now surfacing. If you are competent, confident and flexible we should talk. Dollar amounts for contract work typically range from $600 to $3000, depending on the scope of the project. Much of higher of course for larger projects. I feel I personally excel more on the sales/client relationship side of things, but have had to take up development in a big way because of a few not-so-positive scenarios from working with contractors in the past. But that was then, this is now. If you by nature tend to lean more to the developer side, then we may have a potential synergy. Please let me know if any of you are interested in any of this. Let me know what your skills are, if you have any links you can point me to, etc. send them to me at arzieh at gmail.com. Look forward to hearing from you guys (and gals :-).
