Packt have awarded Joomla! $2000 for receiving the highest number of votes for 'Best PHP Open Source CMS', surpassing Drupal and e107 who came second and third, respectively.

The judges for this roundup noted Joomla!'s "good front-end for administrators and end-users" as well as the large community that supports the Joomla! project.

Last year Joomla! was the winner of the same (albeit modified) competition in which the CMS was awarded $5000.

Packt still has two more cash prizes to give away over the next two days for the 'Most Promising Open Source CMS' and 'Overall Winner'. However, considering the nominees for Overall Winner and Best PHP Open Source CMS are identical, the final results should come as no surprise.
