I wish it wasn't based on eclipse, though. For java, the latest netbeans is much better than eclipse, and I would quickly replace my flex builder with a netbeans flex plugin if one existed.

Worked like a charm! If anyone can succeed with the install and than do not find it in the phpinfo(), than check your php.ini and see if the "extension_dir" is the same path were is located the file "eaccelerator.so", if not, just move that file to your "extension_dir" and you're done! :) Oh, and sometimes, you may want to set the "# And where should it be installed?" path to: INSTALLDIR=${HOME} So don't specify the directory, just leave the variable HOME, with no slash at the end. Hope this helps someone! ;) CyA!

Not that I have anything against fan-boys but real you could pick up a book every once in a while and maybe come up with something more original than "you are wrong". Maybe even read the article rather than just the title. You might learn something!

An enterprise system is a system that integrates several distinct systems required to run a large organization like: its operation management, financial management, customer relationship management and other systems in one coherent, inter-connected system. In this regard: yes, Drupal is not an enterprise system, because nobody ever wanted it to be and nobody claims it to be; but that has exactly nothing to do with all the cliche reasons you list, like whether front-end controller is a good design pattern or not. Oh, for God's sake, you really have nothing better to spend your time on? I am sorry, but your analysis stinks of "black-or-white" kind of arguments. Most things are gray! There is no black or white. You need to grow up and realize that.

Some years down the track, everyone looks at MySpace as the last next big thing, and this review is badly dated (and that reflects unfairly on AroundMe).

For a web design turn part time - part lackluster web dev Joomla was just too much of a hurdle to jump - the structure was simply not laid out as easy as it should be. Wordpress on the other hand - simple - massive community base around it - and better still - easy to administer by the clients. Its a nice list - but the only one i'll be evaluating next is chyrp.

I think your point has some validity. I work in an IBM Websphere shop and we use the IBM RAD(Eclipse) tools. Even if the flex builder 3 plugin were free, it doesn't work in an IBM IDE environment. Adobe doesn't release an XSD for the MXML language, thus this makes it difficult to even use a poor man's editor in Eclipse. I'm researching other products but those cost money and are stand-alone (e.g. IntelliJ, FDT, etc). However, those cost money and make it difficult to integrate into our current IDE environment. Heck, Websphere accounts for nearly 40% of the big iron commercial app servers. The fruit is already dying on the vine.

Dude, it's not that complicated. Anyone who had done DB rational design or algorithm in college/university, they can look at a database design and point out what's wrong and whats not. Most design can go through simple algebra and normalization process. Sometimes DB designers ignores them for flexibility and for other issues. Not a smart move, but has been practiced by many big companies, and drupal is an example. I don't understand why someone with good Db designer has to look at the same db structure for few years to make comment. you are hilarious.

I continue to be surprised at Joomla's continued success given the difficulty in designing for it and it's general lack of adherence to web standards in comparison to a number of other alternatives. Does feel that the open source CMS market is continuing to fragment, however.
