The Mambo Foundation might disagree with that.... the two have forked, 
but as far as Mambo is concerned theirs will be the one with all the 
support etc.. same for Joomla!

At present, on the other sites (ie. the ones without folks who seem to 
hate Mambo on principle) I am waiting to see which direction each of the 
packages moves in going into 2006 before changing anythng...  clearly 
with the fork one is going to have to nail one's flag to either Mambo or 
Joomla! and at present there isn't enough evidence to really say which 
is the prudent direction to go in... as it stands those sites, and the 
LUGoG site, are all running on a version which can be upgraded either to 
Joomla! or Mambo whereas if I upgrade now to either I shall be going 
down a path of no return... neither the new Mambo or Joomla! is 
significantly different in terms of features to what we are currently 
running therefore this seems a bad decision at this stage.

http://lugog.org is (I think) hosted with the uklinux folks... currently 
re-directs.
