Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
A content management system’s licensing model is determined by the licence under which the software is distributed, not by the cost of hosting or professional support.
Free and open-source CMS software may still involve expenses for servers, themes, development, or maintenance, but those costs do not make the software itself proprietary paid software.
Application
Drupal is open-source software distributed under the GNU General Public License. Therefore, describing Drupal itself as paid software makes Statement I false, even though operating a Drupal website can involve hosting or service costs.
Joomla is a free and open-source content management system distributed under the GNU General Public License. Therefore, Statement II is true.
Contrast
Both statements true: this retains the inaccurate paid-software description of Drupal.
Both statements false: this rejects Joomla’s documented free and open-source status.
Statement I true and Statement II false: this reverses the documented licensing status of both systems.
Statement I false and Statement II true: this reflects the documented licensing status of both systems.
Result
Statement I is incorrect, whereas Statement II is correct.
