This is actually not a PHPNuke site. PHPNuke definitely has it's drawbacks and some advantages. I'm eventually going to setup this site using one of the best open source CMS packages out there, Drupal.

Here are the advantages of Drupal
- Solid code base that is concerned with security
- Very easy and intuitive to use and administer
- Very modular
   - It's easy to create a simple module
   - It's fairly easy to install a module (I actually found that PHPWebsite has better install)
- Very large support community for both use and development

The only downside is that the forums suck and have no integration with phpBB.

I would love to look into it.. So far I have had no problems with the phpbb or nuke sites that I have done or worked on.. the current one that I work on has arcade, lotto, stats..etc. and those modules took soome work.. maybe Drupal would be easier in that area.

Oh, another thing. Drupal projects were a part of the "Google Summer of Code." Meaning that Google felt it a worth while open source project to sponsor for summer interns.

However, I think they also sponsored some other CMS software packages.
