Demoing Drupal

I’ve noticed a posting on a job site recently advertising for Drupal experience. This motivated me to setup a Drupal install on the server to play around with it for a bit. Something that caught my eye in the documentation on Drupal was the intention to make Drupal server-independent. So I am looking forward to testing Drupal in an IIS setting, something that WordPress isn’t fully integrated with yet.

Of course, this argument is nullified by IIS7’s use of Web App Gallery, which I had managed to test on Server 2008. My understanding is that WPI easily installs most of the common web application packages available today, including WordPress, Drupal and Joomla.

I am curious to learn which setup will ultimately lead to the best CMS. There are many arguments currently out on the web extolling the virtues of Drupal, WordPress and Joomla; but it takes time to experience each of them.
