Apparently the freebies fro Joomla can vary in quality - I never looked into it too closely.</p> <p>I think the pick of the PHP crowd is Drupal - if you can invest the headspace for learning it. Drupal tends to be more developer-friendly than end-user friendly so if you're not a developer it is harder to grasp than something like Joomla. Apparently its codebase is better than Joomla.</p> <p>Have a browse through the communities - you'll spend some time there so make sure they are to your liking.</p> <p>If the site is quite simple then perhaps WordPress will suffice as it has a plethora of plugins and there are lots of template available for free or <p>I've been meandering down this path for a while now.
