If you want to tank Joomla just google security alerts, the php* script
kiddie hack of the week, etc.

Joomla gives you more of what the average person has in mind by the
term "portal", has lots of shiny bells/whistles, but is more focused on
wcm than true portal, imho. If you want a java based portal, might want
to take a peek at Jetspeed.

If PHP based something _must_ get the nod for political reasons, might
want to check out e107.

I suggest you may want to more clearly define your needs and objectives
first before you just say "my boss wants a portal" and start forging
ahead in pursuit of the latest media darling buzzwords. What is your
boss's concept of a "portal". If that's a left handed smoke shifter,
then that's what you'd best focus on delivering...

If what your boss has in mind is more along the lines of a WCM, then
look at Plone, e107, etc.  If really wants a portal, check
out jetspeed at apache.org. 

Now, that all being said, Nuxeo is maturing nicely as an ECM,
Enterprise Content Management system.  If you want/need an ECM, then in
the FOSS world, you've basically got two choices, Nuxeo and Alfredo.
The latter has been around longer but I'd pass unless you're really
want to chew us some man power hours, build something that nobody but
you understands, etc.,
