The NCLTC (www.ncltc.cc) and NCLUG (www.nclug.cc) web sites are both based
on PostNuke. I also played around with phpWebsite from ASU and ended up
rejecting it because it was extremely sloooow.
I like PostNuke, there are lots of modules freely available to extend the
core functionality. I didn't investigate PHPNuke much, as near as I can
tell, PostNuke is an offshoot of PHPNuke and has better support and more
modules.
I have also used PostNuke at work for a couple of projects and it has worked
well. It is very easy to get a web site up and running. Developing a theme
takes some time as the process isn't well (IMHO) documented but by playing
around you can figure it out.
Hope this helps.
Mike

| (...) Slow is no good. I actually only came across phpWebsite because a friend had used it on his site. And he had only used it because it came already installed on his host. Both ncltc and nclug have very clean interfaces, which is something I (...) (20 years ago, 31-Aug-04, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
