[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Drupal vs. Joomla

[Jim Peterson]

Hilary,

For what it's worth, I have been evaluating our options here, and I
believe we will be going with Drupal as well. Whether we go with
Evergreen or another ILS, Drupal seems to be better-supported &
interacts with more software than Joomla. Plus, there's plenty of
reference material out there to use.
