Re: Building the Ship - IDE

The podcasting nd recorded session might be a good way to allow some time zones to keep up.  Maybe flip flopping the speaker/moderator in different TZ and of course record the session for later re-broadcast... Let's keep this in mind as we choose our tools of communication.

Re: Joomla! Version 1.3.4

thus, you need to define if you can develop on your own new components or if you will rely on other developers to bring the needed components. a total rewrite of the large components may take a while before they become available for 1.5 Furthermore coming from 1.0 architecture to 1.5 mvc model ...

I have a site on 1.0x  Although the site would benefit from 1.5 I do see where a module, component, or mambot would affect the whole site or more to the point the desired intent of having the site. I have need to support readers that are visually challenged thus an accessible site is critical. ...

Ity was on a DVD that came with the MAG.  The Image file is about 1.3gig. and the VM utility for windows is about 13MB.  The image expands to 10Gig giving a 10Gig Virtual Machine (HDD). Perhaps this could be done through bittorrent or an ISO image download.  I'm sure someone here can ...
