This is probably one of the biggest hurdles to CMS adoption by
experienced developers -- when faced with a system as complex as Mambo
or Drupal or whatever, it seems like it will take months just to
figure out, big picture, how everything works together. It seems
easier to just start from scratch.
While any core developer could easily communicate the paradigm to
another programmer face to face, doing so in a written document is a
daunting task.
Does anyone know of a project (doesn't have to be PHP) that has done this well?
