Hey, this is fantastic.

Our own favorite Content Management System, has won the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. As Matt Mullenweg notes, this is great news:

“Every day thousands of new people are embracing WordPress to power not just their blogs but entire sites and communities without compromising on usability or scalability (as would be the case with a legacy CMS). Every member of the WordPress community, from core developer to beginning user, should be proud to be part of this momentum: congratulations to us all!”
