Congrats to all that were involved!!!

Many thanks for all the hard work!
I'm seeing a bright future for 1.5.0 and upcoming!



But 1 question, wasn't it supposed to be that the Template Contest winner was going to be included in the Joomla 1.5.0 final package?

It is good.

A nigh on the town is a well deserved reward...  Thank you and congratulations to all involved.

I want to personally thank everyone who has been involved in this long and intrepid journey.  To everyone who has given time and energy to help build Joomla!'s software, documentation or community... thank you.  It has been an honor to work with you all and I so look forward to the fun we are going to have.

Done!

Congratulations to the Core team who has been working on this for a long time, and of course to the development team and Lead Devs. A special thanks to the Bug Squad who has put in a lot of hours the last few weeks to get this release to where it is now.

Great job and well done !

Life is joomla 1.5
rest is details!

thanks guys!

This is great news! I couldn't be happier right now!

I'd like to thank the developers and the the countless volunteers that have helped make Joomla possible. This project is an inspiration to me, and I plan on contributing in the future!

Once again, great job, and thank you for this amazing product!

Long Live Open Source!

I can't wait to see all the great sites that are built with Joomla 1.5!

The possibilities are endless!

This is an exciting time to be involved in the Joomla community!

Congratulations!

I just install Joomla! 1.5 Stable. I wonder where is the last template.

As I know, The winner of template contest (JoomlaArt) will include in the Stable release right?

Yeah, where's JA Purity?

I want to thank all those people who have given themselves, their time, and their dedication to this project.  I am proud and honored to know and work with every single one of you.  This has been an incredible journey and you guys make it all worth it.  From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for everything you have done.

Wasn't the point of the contest to include JA Purity in the Stable release? I wonder why it's missing...

Still, even without the awesome JA Purity template, Joomla 1.5 is like the best news I've heard all month!!

Regarding the Template Contest, please read this post: http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,215458.msg1138518.html#msg1138518

Thank you.

Congratulation!
This has been the best news to all of us in in the year 2008! 
Thank you for the contest and we are so happy to be part of the news

I think I will work with someone from the core team (is it RobS?) how to fine-tune JA Purity so that it can be included into the stable versions.
Congratulation to Joomla again!!!

Congratulations to ALL and a big thank you to EVERYONE who has contributed from core dev to part time bug catcher - I for one have enjoyed being part of this process even in a tiny way and I look forward to more....

Fantastic news! Congratulations to the Joomla Team and Joomla Community.
