Drupal or Joomla for Heb-Eng Site?

[Danny Lieberman]

I am not qualified to compare Joomla with the current version of Drupal
since all of our sites run on Joomla and we took the CMS decision about 4
years ago.

However - I can strongly recommend Joomla 1.5 and up.

We are very light users of Hebrew but - fwiw there is no issue at all with
the latest version of Joomla mixing hebrew and english, the SEO friendly
URLs work and as long as you are ok with a English language interface -
Joomla will everything you want and more.

I second Shachar's comment about the templates - as long as you use standard
templates or do minimal customization you will be fine - otherwise you will
need help from a more experienced person - and there are tons of them out
there.

Examples:

www.opensolutions.co.il
