Months ago there was another discussion about this, especially for Drupal and Ez. http://ez.no/developer/forum/general/ez_publish_vs_drupal/re_ez_publish_vs_drupal__5 There, I said that for some things drupal could be better and ez could be better for others. But now i'm very dissapointed with Drupal. They have released a new version, but api have changed totally from the previous version. The good thing about drupal is all that stuff developed by users around the world. but, it you want to upgrade to a new (and sure better versions) and you have a lot of contribs downloaded or maybe you have done your ones, you will need to change ALL OF THEM. and i'm not talking about a few changes. i'm talking about changing everything... Other things i don't like is how content and presentation are mixed. I mean. let's suppose you want a front page with the last two content you have created. in ez you'll do a fetch and with some parameters yo get only that two last. in drupal, even if you only want two, core looks for the last ten. so, even if you want a design with only two, drupal are quering internally for ten... And also in ez you have "siteaccess". and by default you have your "admin" part and your "public" part of the site. in drupal you don't. you need to add a module and telling to change the theme by the url, and be sure to add any new admin modules you create to that "list of urls who need to be shown with admin theme". I haven´t work so much with joomla, but every time i tried i didn´t find any module for creating new content classes. in drupal you have that cck wonderful module, and in ez this posibility is the core, but where is in joomla? i have tried with typo3 also, but no su much. i think is more difficult to learn than ezpublish, but its just only an impression... Nowadays i prefer eZ.
