I was a PostNuke user for a long time. A few of my themes were pretty popular but then the community started to change and it got nasty sometimes. The people that were involved in the various forks spoke when they should have been discreet and of course other sides had to voice their opinions as well. I think MagicX (Portalzine) has been one of the best at keeping his cool under pressure. Some of the others haven't been so *good*.
I think that there are other projects that have a better system, including theme engines. *shrugs* There are a lot of systems and a lot of opinions. *hint* e107 *hint*
Maybe even some Xoops influenced forks *wink*
