its all modules for all versions. the amount compatible with Drupal 6 is about 4400. (lies, lies & statistics ;-)
Drupal breaks compatibility between versions. It is a deliberate choice, that if the API can be improved (drastically) it is worth breaking the code. Its a design principle they use. And it prevents things like the total overhaul Joomla had between 1.0 and 1.5. I my opinion (and i did contribute to Joomla in the past), Drupal is the more mature system for more serious websites. It is extremely powerful and scales very well (once you need it). It has a very nice API that allows for almost any extention you can think of and allows for things to work together without knowing how the other end works. It has a very steep learningcurve as well. We took it, and are greatful we made that choice. But by all means, pick your own. BTW, Daniel, for anything that requires PHP or is more than 5 pages, you are absolutely right. Doing stuff in Notepad++ should a complete exception to your normal work as a webdeveloper, for which you use a CMS of choice. -- rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 758 801 749 www.mountbatten.net On Monday 30 August 2010 14:48:05 Mugarura Cavin wrote: > Reinier, > > your research is not clear > > a) 5800 for Drupal > b) 5600 for joomla > > do these numbers for part a - include Drupal 5, 6, and 7 > > if true, then your argument holds no water > > if my memory is right the joomla extensions directory only includes joomla > 1.5 compatible extensions _______________________________________________ LUG mailing list [email protected] http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ All Archives can be found at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
