Episode synopsis

Want to learn more about the history of Joomla, the top features of Joomla 1.6, and more? Then listen in as Mike interviews Andrew Eddie, long time contributor to the Joomla project. Mike and Andrew discuss:

  • The origins of Joomla, including its origins from Mambo.
  • The top features in Joomla 1.6, including comments, ACL (access control lists), nested categories, and more. Lots of cool things I didn't know about!
  • Things to look out for in Joomla 1.6—take note that there won't be any backwards compatibility with Joomla 1.0 or 1.5.
  • How will migration to 1.6 work?
  • Then we briefly say goodbye to Joomla 1.0, which won't be supported past July.

This interview will span two episodes, so be sure to check for the conclusion where we talk about the future of Joomla, and his favorite and least favorite feature of Joomla.
