Hi guys!

Im new to drupal (just finished my first web site with it), i found it very simple and powerfull to use.

Recently, i've been asked to build a community with Zikula.

They prefer to use zikula becose it is the 'evolution' of phpnuke, that is the cms that they currently use (i have 'restayling and rebuild' it).

Moreover, I want learn and use just 1 cms.

So, what are the main differences between drupal and zikula? What are the advantages and disadvantages of one and other?

Why should I choose Drupal or Zikula?

p.s: i know that the most of the times the answer is 'its all about your needs', but this is supposed to be a general question
