Recently in an article (Dutch) in Dutch publication "Webwereld", Drupal advocate and developer Bèr Kessels stated that while Drupal is an awesome CMS, it is not a good fit for government websites and other big projects. An interesting statement for someone from the Drupal camp to make. While Bèr has some valid points, his statements are a bit too generic for my liking.

Steer CMS is a new open source application based on symfony. It offers a CMS for websites in a way similar to other open source CMS'es, yet is based on symfony and so quite a bit more interesting to me.

The old Mambo CMS has a new name. The developers of the old Mambo software had quit their work for Mambo after an argument over the Mambo Foundation that was started. Now, they have presented their new name: Joomla! I wonder where they got that name, it doesn't sound very intelligent.
