想建一个CMS，用来和MBA的同学们交流学习心得和商业信息，我试装过Joomla！，对它漂亮的外表印象深刻，但该系统对中文支持极差，虽然有汉化版本，不过我看过这些中文站点后颇感失望，而且Joomla的主题并不是完全CSS控制的，修改起来比较麻烦，Joomla! 1.5据说会是一个革命性版本，将全面支持utf8编码，还有许多其它新特性，可是等了这么长时间，1.5仍未浮出水面，有些等不及了。Drupal是另一个开源的CMS，很多人用它建Blog，单以此项论，我觉得它不如Wordpress，内容管理才是它的强项，Drupal的国际化支持比较好，功能丰富，结构简洁干净，可定制性强，所以我准备试一试Drupal，看看感觉如何，至于到底用哪一个，大概要等Joomla 1.5发布之后再决定了。
网上找到一篇比较Mambo和Drupal的旧文，参考一下：
Mambo has better look and feel and easy to configure for the first time. It has better add-on(extensions, modules, templates etc.) management.
BTW: This is something which many Open Source products need to improve upon including WordPress which powers this site.
Mambo is not very plugin-author friendly as it doesn’t provide very many hooks into the core. I think however that can be easily remedied.
Drupal is more cleanly designed with extensibility in mind and more flexible.
Drupal provides a standard high-level API for developing extensions and making it easier to extend Drupal in a standard way with uniform look-and-feel.
Drupal provides better support for internationalization through i18n module.
Drupal has better support of Search-Engine-Friendly URLs in core and through modules.
Drupal supports multiple sites with a single installation with fine-grained access control and ability to selectively share configuration settings and database tables.
Drupal comes with better templating system.
The authors concluded that Drupal is much more productive in creating and managing multiple sites with unique look-and-feel.
I am already experimenting with Drupal and I tend to agree with the conclusions above.
