Brett Hooker replied to Amy Stephen's discussion 'Magazine Technical Aspects' in the group Joomla! Community Magazine
Can we begin the process of getting magazine.joomla.org and then get some software on there for us to prototype configurations etc? Or, do we want to setup a sandpit, model in the sandpit, and then migrate from the sandpit to production?

OSM print is related to books; but I'll happily lead discussions with OSM in Q2 CY2010 after we've had a couple of rounds of online content. My vision for print edition is to take a "best of" approach by collating the best online…

Something for everyone to consider as well. It would be feasible for us to allow anyone in the community to submit stories, case studies, tips etc to the magazine site on an adhoc basis. These would be our "news hounds", and there are…

Brett Hooker replied to Amy Stephen's discussion 'Open Source CMS Market Share Report 2009' in the group Businesses
I'll start my reply to Amy's points by highlighting that I am using the term "competitor" from the marketplace's perspective. Whether we like the term or not from a "building community" perspective, it's still…

My thoughts on this report: - Joomla! dominates, as we'd expect given the community metrics known; 10+ million downloads, 300,000+ user community, 3300+ extensions - The core fundamentals are strong, and we'd expect to see Joomla!…

Thanks for joining in. You have a great deal of excellent experience with Information Technology and development practices. I encourage you to share your ideas and concerns about Joomla! with others. You have a good way of making people think about things differently and that type of critical thinking will be important to us as we continue to make Joomla! better. Look forward to collaborating with you.
