joomla vs. mambo?

[rossgile]

Is plesk going to eventually include joomla in the application vault?

Should I change over my hosting clients to Joomla? What is the verdict out there?

ART (www.atomicrocketturtle.com) has Joomla rpms for the application vault. Install using yum.

Hey RG,

I don't know about "should". Mambo is a good CMS. However, Joomla! is being developed by the original core development team and they are continuing the original vision for the opensource.

When you say switch your clients over, do mean migrate their sites over or offer them the app in the application vault or both?

There are several issues/questions:

1. Is Plesk going to add Joomla to it's application vault? If not, why not?

2. I have several clients using VirtueMart (aka phpshop/mambo). Looking at their site, it looks as if they prefer Joomla. They do say "it work's with Mambo also".

3. Since I added several patches to Mambo since the release of Joomla, can I still switch over to Joomla?
