Ok, ok. My message wasn't entirely fair. At first I started writing a
Slashdot-ish rebuttal, but got tired of reading my own ugly words.
Still, Radiant doesn't claim to be what it's not -- don't use a wrench
to drive in nails. Too many CMSs try to be everything to everyone and
Radiant doesn't, which is why I love it.
