Nooku Jam Leuven 2011 Highlights

Check out the some of the photo highlights and insights from last year’s Jam.
This jam (was) followed the more informal barcamp format, which relies on spontaneous input by all the attendants. The attendants were to come up with their own ideas for talks, along with things they would like to hear about. These poles of ideas were quickly refactored into walls of ideas. – Moyoweb
While the other events that I have been to always left me a little exhausted, I left this one feeling inspired and motivated. I’m looking forward to work with all the great guys around Nooku in the future and am excited about all the stuff that is coming up. – David Deutsch

Busy times in the Nooku Project. Contributions are literally pouring in. Things are moving so fast that I haven’t had the time to write about the 12.1 release that went out last month. Besides this being our first real release, lots of great code also made it in.
Sticking to our new 4 month release cycle we officially tagged Nooku 12.1 (/tags/12.1) in all our repositories on the Nooku Developer Portal. At the same time, we also moved the 12.2 release in the trunk (/trunk) and started the development of 12.3 (/branches/development).
A stable first release
This first release is mostly a maintenance release. Lots of bugs and issues discovered after the last alpha have been fixed. We also focussed on making sure that Nooku Framework is fully compatible with all Joomla versions up to 2.5.x.
The 1200 commits made by not less than 12 rockstar developers from all over the world show how dedicated our community is to making Nooku solid and useable in a production environment. Thanks everyone!
Divided by 12 weeks, that’s an average of 108 commits/week or 21 commits a day. Not bad for ‘only’ a maintenance release!

It’s with great pleasure that we unveil our latest contribution to Nooku developers and development : the #Nooku IRC channel which is being officially launched today.

Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a real time communication platform with millions of users and is also extensively used by developers. IRC is supported and used by many open source projects to help developers communicate and collaborate.
To access the Nooku channel, you will need an IRC client. For some of the more noteworthy clients, we have come up with a list for you to check out. Point your client to connect to irc.nooku.org on port 6667 and then type /join #Nooku or simply go to irc://irc.nooku.org
