:) I must say--the line of reasoning and logic as to which platform would most suit my needs is markedly different than the responses I got in the Joomla! forums while doing my due diligence; not sure what inferences one could draw from this. :)
I have a lengthy follow-up constructed, but want to ensure that I won't lose my posting privileges if I step on anyone's toes or rub them the wrong way. ...just my way of negotiating with the hijackers so we can have a peaceful ending to this standoff. If I can't get answers to my questions here, I would be lost and could not move forward.
For what it's worth, I am going to post a thread asking about form/sql modules that would serve my needs (XMod using XML, so ruled that out until the next version, perhaps...ListX, Dynamic Forms, etc...); whether or not this is the right choice remains to be seen, but I've decided that I have no time to invest in getting up to speed with Joomla right now.
PS...some Joomla guys posted one advantage being the length at which one must way to get a post approved and posted on DNN, as their forums allow for instant posts that are not initially approved by moderators. By decreasing the supply of moderation around here, the problem could be exacerbated...food for thought.
But if you veterans welcome an outsider's (and total newbie) perspective on all this, let me know...I'm your future, man. :)
