[support] Another Drupal vs WordPress question

For a small, fixed, brochure site I'd go with html.
For a low budget blog site with no shopping cart, WP.
For an easy to maintain mom & pop shop CMS, I would recommend joomla 
though I haven't used it in a while.

For a site with a secure shopping cart, multiple authors and editors, or 
more complex setup then I'd recommend Drupal.

I also think that Drupal is probably the most secure of all the 
different platforms. I've been porting a customer from Drupal to WP 
(because WP is easier to maintain donchya know) and I've been kind of 
horrified at the WP code.

I use Drupal for almost 6 years but, still, I would put myself to "higher beginner" level. 90% of my websites are small, simple, intro websites I built for friends and "clients". Mostly with News, Basic, Events/Calendar, Webform, Forum... content types. Pretty standard.

If a small nonprofit asks you to build small website with some basic stuff, for free if possible, would you still build it on Drupal?
