The 17th of April 2012 marked the end of the state-of-the-art content translation tool for Joomla. The Nooku team is officially announcing the sunset of Nooku Content.
How time flies… Today, Nooku is 4 years old! It has been an interesting journey! A journey of inspiration, creativity, collaboration… Of pushing boundaries.
As we start year 5, Nooku will slowly leave its Joomla roots behind and wander off into the wider PHP galaxy.
Let’s face it, Joomla is moving ahead, but progresses slowly. We love Joomla and we want it to thrive. We believed that Nooku could make this happen and so did some of you, but the time has come to move on.
In 2013, and with the release of 13.1, the Nooku Platform will run fully standalone. A release we are very much looking forward to. The PHP community is innovating at a fast pace and we want to be at the forefront, helping to evolve the web and continuously growing Nooku as a free and open source web application platform.
We recognize that for some, change is difficult. But this is technology! It’s the fastest game in the world! As a long time Joomla community member and Nooku Rock Star, Torkil Johnsen said:
“You have to chase and embrace innovation to stay in the game, not demand that it comes over to shine your shoes.”
The countdown begins for one of the most exciting Nooku events of the year. Have you signed up for Nooku Jam 12.2 Leuven?
Expect two days of presentations, discussions, brainstorms, workshops, and hackathons around specific areas of the Nooku project on May 16 and 17 at the FlandersDC Creativity Lab in Leuven, BE.
