Drupal is great! But it sucks!

I glad I’m not alone in the sentiment of that seemingly contradictory statement.

I blogged on this at http://interactiveqa.com/conte.....-usability and linked back to this article.

I think this is a great topic that should be discussed and clarified. It’s a lot more complex than just whether Drupal is easy to use or not.

I’m really thankful for the work people are putting in to make Drupal a solid system, and of James Walker for getting everyone talking.

Connecting with the user is necessary in all forms of programming and one that programmers stereotypically suck at.

The “there’s a module for that!” phrase is overused but only means “yes, it has already be done and I can implement it with little effort.”

It would be nice if programmers learned to communicate better and their groups weren’t such an elitist group that is so difficult to enter. But these issues are not unique to Drupal.

My understanding is that the usability issues have greatly been alleviated with Drupal7 just as the installation issues of yesteryear were alleviated with Drupal5 and 6.

That said, these things do need to be addressed for penetration beyond the niche market Drupal already has conquered.
