WordPress Origin Story	Came to WordPress after having developed my own PHP infrastructure, but looking for a community supported base rather than a proprietary one. Was enthused with BuddyPress as a community platform, but disenchanted with the WordPress core, primarily around security issues. Moved to Drupal based on an evaluation published on ArchitectedFutures.info. Moved back to WordPress as a platform that is more approachable for portal development by individual authors.
