Why K2?

www.joomlaworks.gr

1. Joomla! has been far behind other competing CMSs like Drupal and WordPress in terms of social features and flexibility (categorization, ACL, expansion etc.)

2. Joomla! 1.0 and 1.5 are practically the same in features for the end-user

3. Slow development cycle for Joomla! - which further strengthens point 1.
