The Joomla! Forum™

Congratulations to everyone -- this is outstanding news. 

2008 will be The Year of Joomla!

Thanks for the feedback and ideas, everyone.  I have started into some of the tutorials at http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627, which seem to be pretty good thus far.  I'm also going to work with the materials available to the 1.5 newbie coder forum, a very helpful resource.

Hi Everyone: I think it's great that the Joomla team has created this forum to help people get into the coding/programming aspects of Joomla.  I look forward to exploring the resources here and expanding my knowledge. However, one of the things I struggle with goes beyond just Joomla/PHP and re...

Outstanding -- I have been waiting for this day (as have many others).  Congratulations to the dev team and the community!

I just wanted to say that all of the updates and disclosures about the activities, thought processes and decision-making as conducted by the Joomla! core team is very much appreciated.  You guys and gals seem to be doing a great job of keeping everyone informed while not putting out halfway-tho...

What great news to wake up to this morning!  I and so many others have been waiting for the next update to the 1.5 development process, so this is simply fantastic. I'd like to thank all of the people involved in this great project for your hard work, skills, focus and dedication.  You are...

I voted for both, because I believe that the commercial marketplace (and the commercial viability of the overall Joomla! project) is going to go a long way toward helping the overall effort.  Mindshare and marketshare have a value: By developing commercial extensions for Joomla!, developers are...

Hi David: Although I personally feel your pain (I can't download joomlaXplorer right now), I think you need to cut these guys a little slack.  What's done is done: Carping extensively about what should have been done, how the process should have been organized better, etc. won't do anyone any g...

As the announcement noted, one of the qualifying factors for choosing an open-source solution is the size and quality of the community that supports it.  I can't count the number of times where I haven't been able to find an answer to a problem in the official manuals, but Joomla!'s community f...

Interesting discussion; thanks for inviting me in, Amy.  I have signed up for John's Chicago JUG.  I'm interested in getting involved because Joomla is the best open-source CMS I've used,  and I need to get in touch with others to talk about how we can adapt it for use on my Chicago 5...
