Re: Suggestion : a new T2 Website

No flame ware. Just my experience. The last 4 websites I made and are
hosting are in fact  mambo site. 2 of which where ported from earlier
sites I made in php and there is a definite slowdown in page loads
speeds from the original sites.
This may be warranted if the extra functionality is needed and I just
wanted to mention that this was my experience. no more, no less.

And I did add the necessary salt intake with my comment.
