Drupal once again tops the Best Open Source PHP CMS category which they won in 2008 as well.  Filling in the other top two spots for Best Open Source PHP were new comer to the list WordPress which started as a blogging platform but has come full circle as a wonderful PHP-based CMS and Joomla who is no stranger to the list.  Drupal walks away with $2000 and the other two will receive $500 each.

In the Most Promising Open Source CMS we have ImpressCMS toping the list, which beats their tie with MiaCMS for the final spot on the list last year.  Pixie takes the runner-up spot as a “small, simple” CMS and Pligg brings up the rear.  Pligg and Pixie are making the list for the first time this year.  ImpressCMS will receive $2000 and the other two will receive $1000 each to aid their efforts.

Two more categories remain for this year’s Open Source CMS Awards from PacktPub.com.  They are Best Overall Open Source CMS and the Hall of Fame award.  Will Drupal again take the coveted Best Overall spot or will a new comer unseat them and force them to retire in the Hall of Fame?  We’ll see Friday.
