A C Zoom

Hi Avinash,

I can't agree more. We currently have sites sitting on Drupal 5.x that can't be upgraded any further even within the D5.x version set because of D5 modules that can't be upgraded any further without the module upgrade process deleting large chunks of user data. Much less trying to upgrade these sites to D6.

Modules are a great feature for Drupal, but most of the ones we use are either broken in one fashion or another or don't do what you'd expect them too out of the box.

And don't get me started on having to apply the same hacks to core every major upgrade (D4 to D5 to D6) as simple three line BS bugs just aren't fixed.

If you write a conversion document from Drupal to Wordpress, please drop me a line. I'm pretty sure all my clients are going to force me to abandon Drupal, as I'm getting tired of being asked why I recommended they use something where I keep having to instruct them to do xyz manually, because the inbuilt CMS functionality won't actually do it correctly.
