WordPress is not a CMS.
Currently WP requires multiple installs for multiple sites, but it can very simply be configured to use a single MySQL database for all of the individual installs.
Ease of use? Well, that’s a difficult question: it depends on your skills, and the complexity of the sites you want to build. There are too many factors to really say with certainty.
Why do you think it can’t stand up to heavy traffic? WP is powering some sites that get a LOT of traffic, such as http://photomatt.net/ and http://weblogtoolscollection.com/
How about grabbing an install and setting it up and seeing for yourself? It won’t take but a few minutes to do, and in no time you’ll see what it’s about for yourself.

I don’t really nead all the features of a CMS or Blog system.
Most of them have the same cool features, I’m looking for something:
– Scalable (load/Traffic Capability)
– Robust (less bugs)
– Multiple site Deployment (One codebase for multiple sites)
– Easy to deploy, plugins, active dev community
So far I am down to:
Apache Lenya, MovableType, Blojsom, PostNuke, XOOPS, TYPO3, WebGUI, mambo, Slash, Nucleus, WordPress.
I would like to integrate it as an enterprise solution for a client with multiple sites, not for a personal site.
I was wondering if you guys could share your thoughts about those. Thanks
i found a wordpress module for xoops. no documentation in english but if you know wordpress it is no problem. it installs as a module no problem. i just install xoops and wp-module locally so i can’t say much more right now.

Requirements 1 and 4 are no problem, the others might be. Speaking honestly I would say that WordPress will probably be ideal for your needs in about six months but it isn’t quite there yet. In particular multi-blog capacity is at present something that has to be hacked on rather than part of the core.
You mean something like “a blog that doesn’t look like a blog”?
