It really doesn’t seem that long since the now infamous Core Team split from Mambo resulted in the release of Joomla 1.0 on the 16th September 2005.
For us it is it will always be something close to our hearts. Our own Johan Janssens, Peter Russell and Shayne Bartlett were all members of that Mambo Core Team and as such share with sixteen others the unique privilege of being co-founders of Joomla!
In keeping with our love of Joomla, the world’s best award winning CMS, Nooku TV launched today to herald some exciting news.
We are creating some of the most exciting software technologies possible for Joomla. If you want to learn more about what we are doing, see our work in action and learn about how other people use it be sure to tune in. We hope to have regular videocasts with developers, community members and experts such as our own Johan (Doctor Nooku) Janssens and Mathias Verraes.
In this premiere episode we interview Dutch Joomladay organiser Sander Potjer who provides an insight into the fortcoming Joomladays to be held in the Netherlands. Sander, also is an early adopter of the Nooku multi-lingual solution, which is used on the http://www.joomladays.nl/ site.
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.
