COMMUNITY WordPress friendly regulated by Automattic Joomla! self-driven by having many working groups (PLT, CLT, COC, OSM, ...) and endless discussions with little decisions :) Drupal ofﬁcial free community but with distinct inﬂuence from AcquiaFriday, November 11, 11

CONTRIBUTIONS WordPress difﬁcult* ... usually via Automattic Joomla! in general possible, very bureaucratic and ineffectual internal procedure which really hinders timely contributions* Drupal in general very easy*. Currently long patch jam for D7 * This is my personal impression, November 2011Friday, November 11, 11

LEARNING CURVE :) http://themetaq.com/queue/learning-curves-for-popular-cmssFriday, November 11, 11

TARGET GROUPS WordPress Blogs, MultiUserBlogs, sites with CMS-functions* small or no-budget projects Joomla! Websites for SME’s, NGO’s, associations, museums, private people* small or no-budget projects Drupal Big, complex sites with individual adaptations or totally conﬁgured sites without any adaptations rather bigger budgets * bigger sites with bigger budgets are also possible, but rather seldomFriday, November 11, 11

WHAT SHOULD I TAKE? With all of these systems you can create any website. You should take the system which you know best and the one, which suits best for your client. If you are a beginner, invest three days to play around with each system for one day. Go to events like that one! Trust your experience. They all cook with water :)Friday, November 11, 11

KEEP IT SIMPLE! clients don’t like complexity (even not when they pay 500.000+ €)Friday, November 11, 11

Clients like to pay for the value of your work! They don’t like to pay for the time, you need to do the work! http://www.ﬂickr.com/photos/dpgreen/5854718132/Friday, November 11, 11
