Srsly? I built a CMS for a client that needed photo management, video management and 1-1 mapping of the pages on the site to admin pages that represent the editable fields plain to see in about 30 hours using Django, django-photologue and Grappelli.

Just what about Drupal is so good for CMS that isn't also trivial in RoR or Django?

That's a CMS, so long as you limit your definition of "content" to photos and video.

Also, I find it poor form to expose the Django admin interface to your users in place of developing your own templates and view logic. Seems like a "srsly" bad idea.

It's fine if you trust your users.

What kind of site did you build where django took too long compared to drupal? Have you come across the Pinax Project?
