I'm sure Drupal is capable of being OFLB.  I maintain some drupal sites
and they have their drawbacks but it's better than a lot of other stuff.
I don't know the other package mentioned, so I won't comment on whether
that is in "other stuff" or not ;-)

A note of caution: a lot of drupal site owners use an eyetest as a bad
anti-spam tactic.  Of course, that's not accessible.  In the worst
cases, Google's user-insulting reCaptcha is used and tells some users
that they're not human!  Much better to use real anti-spam tools.  I'd
like to develop some more anti-spam drupal modules when I find funding.
