Joomla!, for the second time running, has been nominated as a finalist for the 2007 PacktPub Open Source CMS Awards.

Our project has successfully made it to the final five of in two categories of the prestigious PacktPub open source CMS (content management systems) awards.  This year Joomla! is nominated in the Overall Winner and Best PHP Open Source CMS.  We were fortunate enough to win the top prize last year.

Vote for Joomla! as OVERALL WINNER here.

Vote for Joomla! as BEST PHP OPEN SOURCE CMS here.

Since Joomla! won last year we've seen some huge advancements in our framework, with Beta and Release Candidate versions of our re-factored Joomla! 1.5.  Joomla! can claim to have on of the largest user bases in the CMS world, with millions of installations on sites ranging from the United Nations, to Porsche to zillions of hobby sites.  The flexibility and ease-of-use is what makes Joomla! so appealing to users.  With 1.5 stable on the horizon, the future is looking even stronger for Joomla!

See what some independent UK technologists think about Joomla! 1.5.

Once again, thanks to PacktPub for creating a buzz and investing in the open source community as a whole.  All projects benefit from Packt's interest and support.

Down Under Joomla!Day Success PDF Print E-mail
Brad Baker
Brad at Melbourne J! Day
Australia's first Joomla!Day, held in Melbourne on the weekend, turned out to be a great success.

 

With more than 50 people attending — including one Joomla!-virgin — the Australian scene looks set to become one of the top Joomla!Days on the events calendar.

"Joomla! 1.5 was the most talked about topic, and everyone just can’t wait for it. It’s certainly made me re-think my priorities and what I might be able to do to help towards the goal of getting 1.5 out as soon as possible," a tired but enthusiastic Brad Baker reports from down under.

You can see more photos and read his full report on his blog  and itwire's report.

Congratulations are in order... PDF Print E-mail

Congratulations DrupalToday Drupal announced the release of the long awaited Drupal 5.0, appropriately and symbolically released on Drupal's sixth birthday. We would like to offer our congratulations to the guys and gals making Drupal what it is and to let them know that we are enjoying the celebration as well.

We have met many of the Drupal contributors at various events and consider them friends with common goals. Our two projects are often compared, and there is nothing wrong with comparison... but make no mistake of it, we are all on the same side working to enable people... because we both believe that open source matters.

So from one open source project to another: Congratulations!!
