Happy First Birthday, Nooku!
How time flies … Nooku is one year old today! It has been an great year for Nooku with great and encouraging feedback. Our partner base grew to more then 20 partners in the past year. Their enthusiasm and commitment shows that a funded GPL model can be a great way to build highly advanced Joomla extensions.
Our agile development methodology has allowed us to release early and often. In the past 12 months we released 2 feature releases and a total of 10 maintenance releases. We counted more than 1500 code commits, closed over 100 tickets and saw a codebase increase of more then 40%. Nooku Content is slowly evolving into a real content manager, and is not just for publishing multi-lingual websites anymore. Mono-lingual websites can benefit from the workflow and search engine optimization features Nooku offers as well.
And there is more to come: for the next versions we are focusing on advanced user and translator permissions, article versioning and user interface changes to make your life as a content editor even easier. Our goal is to make Nooku Content the de-facto extension every professional Joomla site should have installed. The coming year we are boosting things up even more, and we’ll be sticking to our promise of making the technology available to more people.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our partners for being so supportive to our project. Without their vision and support we wouldn’t be where we are today: on the verge of a Nooku Framework technology explosion. We are extremely excited about the work done in the last 12 months. It’s the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come.
