As we prepare to dive into Drupal, I have been reading about the cons and pros of the platform. Based on the reading I have been doing, Drupal sounds very promising; however, I came across an article at Content There which narrates the sequence, and the reason why The Onion, a news satire organization, made the move from Drupal to Django. “Django,” I said.
My shock was in two-fold, first: I have never heard of Django, and second: as I learned from the article, in a general aspect, customizing any content management system could render trouble for the CMS administrator. I use SharePoint, Microsoft Enterprise CMS suite, everyday at work and have been administrating changes and structure to the document topography for the company for the past two years. On the side I use Joomla, for personal development, and have started getting into Moodle in a lesser scale than the previous two. My worry is that I tend to customize the code when I don’t find the flexibility to adapt to the company or my needs. So, I am hoping upgrading won’t create havoc for me!
