    Between Joomla, Ektron CMS 400.net, Dupra and those other ones, which seems to be the best one out there? I need database management for content, different languages, etc..

    thanks

    I would recommend Wordpress & Joomla. Wordpress will stand as my first choice.

    This question has been asked what seems like a gazillion times in these forums, especially in the content management forum. Head over there and do a search and you'll see what i mean.

    There is no one answer, no one best CMS. Everyone's experience and preference will be different. My suggestion is to pick out 3 or 4, which you seem to have done already, install them on subdomains, and experiment with them, see what works best for you.

    I'm not sure how WordPress goes with internationalisation...

    I would recommend you take a look at www.opensourcecms.com as they have all the demos of both the admin and frontend.

    I'd go with anything self-coded or custom coded over those. Most of the CMS you find out there have a problem of over bloated code.

    The decision pretty much depends on what do you want. If you'll be posting only news and ocassionally some pictures, then you need a blogging software like wordpress or Joomla. But if you want to be able to include various modules and tools, then you should go with phpNuke or something similar.

    Wordpress is hard to internationalize but easy to use.
    Drupal is easy to internationalize but hard to get started with.
    It really depends on your needs.
