Drupal has won the Hall of Fame Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. Drupal previously won the 2007 and 2008 Best Overall Open Source CMS Award. As a result of the previous wins, Drupal graduated to the Hall of Fame along with Joomla.
It is a great honor for the Drupal community to be the first winner
of the Open Source CMS Hall of Fame Award. The Drupal community has
worked hard to improve Drupal by adding internationalization, enhancing
security, facilitating customization, increasing extensibility, and
easing the user experience. This award is a great complement to winning
the 2009 Open Source PHP CMS for the second year in a row. This
critical recognition helps build both momentum and excitement towards
releasing Drupal 7 in 2010.
This award has a $4000 prize, bringing the total prize money from
the Packt Open Source CMS awards to $6000. The money will go to the
Drupal association to help pay for drupal.org infrastructure,
marketing, and Drupalcon events.
Drupal has won best open source PHP Content Management System
for the second year in a row in the Packt Publishing 2009 Open Source
CMS Awards. Drupal won by popular vote and a critical selection by a
panel of judges. This award reflects the strong support of the Drupal
community and our focus on quality which leads to critical acclaim and
rapid adoption for large, high quality projects. Drupal won best
overall open source CMS in 2007 and 2008.
From the award announcement,
We are pleased to announce that Drupal
has won the Best Open Source PHP CMS Category in the 2009 Open Source
CMS Award. This category featured a very close contest between the top
three, Drupal, WordPress, and Joomla! in which Drupal ended up as the
overall choice for the judges and the public.
While Drupal and Joomla! have always
consistently featured among the top three in this category, WordPress
made its way into the top five for the first time. The fact that it was
outranked by Drupal by a very slight margin indicates how popular it
has become with users as well as developers over the past year.
