Drupal is een uitgebreid content management systeem dat zijn werk doet op een groot aantal platformen. Het programma kan via modules van extra functionaliteiten voorzien worden en door gebruik te maken van zogenoemde themes kan een andere layout aan de cms worden gehangen. Zo is het mogelijk om met Drupal een nieuwssite, forum en/of een collaboratiesite te onderhouden. De ontwikkelaars hebben versie 6.0 beta 3 uitgebracht met de volgende aankondiging:
Drupal 6.0 beta 3 released
With another month of active beta testing, our code is growing more stable by the day. Since Drupal 6 beta 2 was released, we have committed over 180 fixes to the Drupal 6.x code, so we are proud to announce the release of the third beta version of Drupal 6.x for your testing. This beta version includes usability improvements and lots of bug fixes for issues which the testers encountered. The first beta announcement provided a comprehensive list of high level improvements made since Drupal 5.x, so in this announcement we'll concentrate on how you can help ensure that Drupal 6 is released as soon as possible and is as rock solid as the previous Drupal releases that you've grown to love!
Major changes made since the release of Drupal 6 beta 2 include several code and interface documentation fixes and improvements, HTML validity fixes, performance improvements and easier to use templating. The core system now also runs without table locks and temporary tables, making Drupal usable in more shared hosting environments, and also improving performance at the same time. Localization support in the installer is now complete, as well as error reporting and requirements management through the installation process. One of the major usability improvements in this beta release is the addition of drag and drop ordering support to the blocks, menus and filter formats administration interface.
So when does 6.0 get released?
We plan to advance to the last beta in around a week, and then the first Drupal 6 Release Candidate next, unless major bugs appear in the beta versions. Drupal 6.0 will be released after (a) there are no more critical bugs and (b) we've had at least one release without adding any more to the list. When will that be? Well, it depends entirely on how many people chip in and help out! The more people help, the faster we can find and fix bugs, and the faster 6.0 gets released. The faster 6.0 gets released, the faster we can start adding new features to Drupal 7.0. So help out where you can, and let's make this the best and most solid release of Drupal yet! :)

werkt in 99% van de gevallen ook zeer stabiel, en zelf heb ik er nooit problemen mee gehad. ik heb ut ook niet lang genoeg gebruikt om echte problemen tegen te komen of zo (a). gelukkig blijven ze dit project door zetten en stopt het niet net als veel CMS systeemen
