I think that we should not reinvent the wheel again and use already existing tools. Before we thought about the portal and choosed drupal as a possible cms for it. Although Joomla is a good candidate too.
Good reason, for practical reason. If we're going to use external tool, as we don't need to reinvent the wheel so to say, I personally prefer WordPress engine. It less complex and easier to use and to maintain. But, that's me. :)
If you want fpWeb very much you can start portal development in paralel. We can have fpWeb solution using drupal database. When it is ready we will switch to it without the need of database converting, etc.
For development reason, I still prefer fpWeb. Yes, we would reinvent the wheel, if we say in CMS world as there are many ready-to-use CMS out there, though mostly build using PHP (and mysql). But, in pascal world, it maybe the first CMS that's build using pascal. Besides, it could be a best example and showcase for FPC/Lazarus. And for the database, personally, I much prefer Firebird, for many reasons. But, again, that's me.
