Herman Peeren commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"Not all information is available to everybody, not even to anybody. I could write a whole book with all the details and subtleties... but I won't. It is true what Amy says: we could go on and on for ever. We wouldn't come anywhere! Please…"

Ok - to repeat my message:
Just to make this very, very clear, it would be so easy to go on and on and on about this - but doing so will make the CLT and the Joomla! project look worse and worse…"

Peter Russell commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"For those who've missed, here's Herman's "offending" cartoon and story. Caution you may find out about a cracking GPL project that makes Joomla slimmer, sexier and more powerful."
Steven Zeegers commented on Amy Stephen's blog post Joomla Drama: JCM, Censorship, Bans, nooku, and Hope for Leadership"Well, to be perfectly honest... I can see why the cartoon could have been refused. Unlike the article, it's a bit... provocative? Political?
Just playing the devil's advocate here. Not approving of censoring…"

"I see where the confusion is, Justin.
The Joomla Community Magazine Editorial Team did not refuse these articles. The first poster is Cristina and she was a lead Editor for the JCM. She resigned this month when the next two nooku pieces were…"
Justin Kerr commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"Hi Bo!
I hear what you're saying, but the JCM is the official editorial mouthpiece of the Joomla project, so it's natural that, editorially speaking, they wouldn't take too far of a walk on the wild side. It seems like they have…"

you say: "..it's not surprising that they have a conservative bias against outside ideas"
I am not sure who "they" are but my understanding is the JCM is the community magazine and the operative word is…"
Steven Zeegers commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"Can't disagree with anything you said. While I might not be able to change the "JCM ways" I think we should at least give it a try.
I'm not afraid of creating alternatives to get the content published, though.…"
Justin Kerr commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"I don't find this type of editorial bias to be uncommon. Unfortunate, perhaps, yes, but not uncommon. Every publication has a right to refuse any type of submitted content, and as the "official" editorial mouthpiece of the…"
Steven Zeegers commented on Steven Zeegers's blog post My view about the JCM debates"I called it a "rumor" because I haven't read or heard it myself. Like I wrote in the article: Conflicts with a certain person are no reason to ban an article on a project he's working on. There's some…"

My view about the JCM debates
So, yesterday the latest edition of the JCM was launched. Unlike the previous times, where people were pumped to see it launch, people were angry and frustrated because two articles on Nooku had been turned down on JCM.
I couldn't help but comment on this, from my perspective. As excited as I was to have published my very first article in the JCM, I was less excited to hear that those two Nooku articles were refused. For quite a few reasons, too. I thought I'd just let this…
