Wordpress becoming a CMS platform

I’ve been running Wordpress 2.5 RC1 for around a week and have posted my Wordpress 2.5 RC1 - First Impressions on this long anticipated upgrade. There are a number of CMS platforms out there but Wordpress is quickly transforming into an extremely useful and adaptable platform. We have also been looking at using it internally within our organisation due to its ease of configuration and use. Sharepoint has always been the direction we have been heading in as I’ve written about several times but Wordpress is definitely growing on me! Two of my favourite things about the platform are the ease in which content can be published and the varied array of plug-ins which extend the platform into a number of useful directions.
Which CMS do you use and what do you like about it?

I’m just trying out Textpattern to build a website for a singe my husband manages. It looks OK but I haven’t had the time to ‘mess’ with it properly. I checked out Joomla but it looked too big for what I wanted. For our group project at college we’re using CMSMadeSimple for a school website - it looked easy for the school to use after we have finished 
The main problem I have with TP for now is that I don’t want to have the date & author published but I haven’t quite figured out how to get rid of it (yet). I’ll be spending some time on it over the next couple of days so I hope to get it sorted then.

Thanks for the comment Sharon. I have not seen Textpattern around but there a lot of CMS solutions out there. I came across one ther day called Plone which we are looking at migrating to Wordpress.
