I guess, every CMS has same problem. Either you build from scratch or use one of the CMS. For quickly setting up a web site Drupal/Wordpress is good option. There are plenty of cases, you would not want to write from scratch. For example, I am running my website on Drupal(http://www.avabodh.com http://www.avabodh.com) without writing any code. I do not have time to write code for my website. My requirements are very simple. It will be waste of time if write CMS from scratch for my purpose. I dont think there exists a good replacement of Drupal today.

> I dont think there exists a good replacement of Drupal today How about WordPress + plugins + some custom code in a little plugin? (much less work than for Drupal and you can implement what you want by ignoring 90% of WP's functionality and "ugly" code base - that is not poetry, btw, for those who get the joke :) ) You can even use a lightweight MVC framework of your choice inside your plugin if you figure out how to stitch things together and avoid some undocumented pitfalls...
