If I am just going to "use" a blogging platform - wordpress makes a lot of sense to use simply because you can have a blog up and running before you can even schedule a meeting to decide what features one needs to build in the blogging platform. And if the incremental changes are look and feel or rather modest in their reach - its far easier to just outsource. It all stems from how one values customers money and one's own time. If I am going to use the blog just as a starting point for a much bigger CMS, then a whole host of issues such as self's skills, proclivities, team skills, skill availability, learning curve, platform features, performance features, all need to get factored in. I suspect it all boils down to whether I value my time and my customer's money over or under my preferred language. Once thats clear - the path ahead also is. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://blog.dhananjaynene.com twitter: @dnene <http://twitter.com/dnene>google plus: http://gplus.to/dhananjaynene _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
