> THe module packaging isn't a question.  Its a statement.  For example, I
can create a function through the GUI in drupal and then package it for
deployment on another site.  That helps to add new features easily and
consistently.  It ensures that the code is consistent and can be maintained
with updates provided for modules used on hundreds of thousands of sites.

Regarding the truck comment about Drupal, yes the Interface isn't as slick
as silverstripe's is but at least I don't see a loading screen every time I
click a button on the admin screen.  I"m using it on a fast computer too
with a good internet connection.
