Re: New forum search engine

The forum search at Joomla is oddly fast considering how large the database must be.

Re: The Extensions forum *IS NOT* working .... TOO MANY POSTS !

I am going to read more about the emerging plans for organizing information at http://extensions.joomla.org/
It's possible that some of my concerns about information not being easily findable are going to be addressed.

I always wonder if a wiki-like with forum-like commenting would be the way to go.

I am sure any question I have has been asked and answered many times.

Why is it so time consuming to find the information?



Because the forums are not designed around the Issues users have.  They are based on relatively unhelpful hierarchies.

Re: The Extensions forum *IS NOT* working .... TOO MANY POSTS !

One thing that would be really helpful is perhaps instead of trying to redo the forums to suit extensions by adding 19+ forums that need moderators and also opens up the potential for abuse, I was assuming that the subforums would be moderated by the current forum moderators - at least initially, o...

Re: Wiki component for Joomla! -> Joomla! documentation

OpenWiki was great.
I'd love a non-iframe version of Nuwiki that works !

I really feel that Joomla! would benefit from a DEAD SIMPLE native wiki.

Re: The Extensions forum *IS NOT* working .... TOO MANY POSTS !

I think the challenge is to figure out how to design things from the TYPICAL end user's perspective. The idea here is the user has installed Joomla and wants to figure out if Joomla has a Blog Component. How can joomla.org provide the user with the information he/she needs for making a great decisio...

Link from HomePage to Joomla! download poorly done.

The Download J! 1.0.12 link points to a mess of files.

UGLY.

At a minimum, I'll bet that alot of people download the first file when they really want .12-Stable-Full_Package.zip.

Re: New slogan

should the slogan be to attract new Users or retain old users ?

I guess to start retain old users.

The word Together would be important then.

Re: New Logo

I like the OSM Logo .. but maybe with eyes.  I also like the funky image that looks like a coloured turkey.
If you had the "feathers" changing colour in a cool gif/flash that would rock.
