[Web4lib] wiki or cms?

[Hankinson, Andrew]

Joomla was branched from Mambo, so at the time of the split, Mambo 4.6 =
Joomla 1.0. They've since parted features, and I don't know if they're
maintaining compatibility (a philosophical fallout between the
developers and the company behind Mambo (Miro?) on the nature of open
source prompted the split.)

I'm curious, having tried both Joomla and Mambo CMS, and since Joomla
1.0 is based on Mambo, why Joomla at such an early release stage would
be chosen over the more mature Mambo.

If anyone's interested, Royal Oak (Michigan) Public Library recently
launched a new site with Joomla:
