I do agree with you. I use it in a small seperated section of our website :)

But I somewhat agree -- WordPress is still first and foremost a blogging

I only mention it because WP is the best -- for me -- blogging system and if
the authors lost their mind in that main focus the program could lose a lot.

Most of this discussion is about trying to make it have the same concerns
that a full blown CMS as and that, in my opinion, is not what it should be.

At Care2x.org you have multi-language support, writers, translators, editors
and so on. I think a CMS is only needed for those kind of not so dinamic
websites.

For cummunities you have Mambo/Joomla and Drupal (for me the best PHP based
ones) and their modules system to turn it what you want.

Those ideas are all based in trusting others: Blog (trust), CMS (less
trust), Community (even less trust). But I may be wrong :)

Thanks.

Lopo
