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.

With the end of life of Joomla 1.5 coming up at the end of the month and the integrated multilingual capabilities that are now available in Joomla 2.5, we feel there is no longer a need for a separate multilingual solution for Joomla.

With the sunset of Nooku Content, we are putting all our focus on growing Nooku as a free and open source web application platform.

As Nooku starts its 5th year, we will slowly leave our Joomla roots behind and wander off into the wider PHP galaxy. Exciting times!

But first, the tool that speaks your language is bidding adieu and we thank all our partners who helped us build Nooku Content.

We are pleased to announce the release of Nooku Content version 0.6.7. This version is a maintenance release that addresses a number of issues reported by our partners. A few smaller features where also added :

• Module translation improvements. We have further optimized the way Nooku Content deals with syncing of module translations and improved Nooku Content’s module translation workflow. Modules are no longer listed in the items overview and are also no longer taken into account for the statistics.
• Improved compatibility with K2. We have done extensive testing with K2 and fixed a number of smaller issues related to translating a K2 powered Joomla site. We are happy to announce that we now fully support K2.

Together with the release of Nooku Content 0.6.7 we are also releasing Nooku Framework 0.6.7 which includes a number of smaller fixes. Nooku Framework is available through our Nooku Developer Portal, for a direct link to the 0.6.7 SVN go here.

We are pleased to announce the release of Nooku Content version 0.6.6. This version is a bug fix release that addresses a number of issues that where reported by our partners. A few smaller features where also added :

• Better language syncing. We have made a number of changes to the way Nooku Content handles it’s language syncing especially during installation of extensions. Nooku Content is now smart enough to sync modules that are installed as part of the installation of a packaged extension. For example, DOCman, or K2, etc ..
• Better error handling. We re-worked our error handling to throw nice and meaning-full error messages when something goes wrong, for example when a language cannot be found.

If you want to see Nooku Content in action, you can find our team this weekend at the J and Beyond conference We are sponsoring the event and are also doing a Nooku Framework workshop on Tuesday.
