Re: Discuss: Gettin' in the Joomla! Groove

Great idea  ;D

Awesome implementation.

Now if only we could add shipping locations, paying $18 bucks shipping for a $15 product is slightly silly.

Anyway, well begun is half done, now enough chit chat, am off to order!!

Hmm, thats a great idea dsheppard

I create seperate folders for coms, mods, bots and templates I download

But, would like to add some components and related modules later, should I start a new project or just add into this one?

We will tie it into a "Immediate download from File Release" system is that's all that is needed (so if all you need is the app, you can pull it down from the project categorization system without actually having to enter the project and then navigate to the File Rleases app).
