for websites like Pass223.com, i wouldnt use drupal or any CMS. it has a
different requirement. basically whether you use CMS or build the site from
scratch depends on the requirement.

for community kind of sites, developing everything from scratch is like
reinventing the wheel. when there are already tools available for building
community sites like http://demo.ilugc.in, u need not do coding with hand.

currently, demo.ilugc.in supports what our ilugc needs and it basically uses
open source cms which is growing like anything and its not simple site.

for e.g http://www.ilugc.org/ is coded with hand. it has also given the
locations of the code. but you could see the

which is not yet updated by the community. this is the problem with static
sites which i feel.

but with http://demo.ilugc.in, you will see the content being updated by its
users. i updated content related to SFD 2009. some one have added event.
users can do job posting, report bugs etc.
