Hi All,

I just joined Fedora "web" group officially approved by Warren Togami. (Thank you again
Warren.)

Here is my first question as a member.
Who's going to decide which CMS will be installed on fedoraproject.org?

I understand Seth Vidal prefers Python based CMS and I'm sure everyone has their own
favorite CMS. Recently I've been testing Drupal CMS (http://drupal.org) on my own server
(http://fedoranews.org/cms) and I must admit I'm very impressed with its features and
capabilities.

Please let me know if I misunderstood the plan. Otherwise, I hope there is some sort of
voting process for us.  

Regards,
