Top 10 Things Overheard at the Voxus PR Meeting for Joomla! 1.6 Launch

10. Joomla! 1.6: Ah! Now, the PR Firm contract makes sense.

9. Joomla! 1.6: We forgot where the component installer is... no comment at this time.

8. Joomla! 1.6: 2.5 years and 16,911 commits... but still no comments!

7. Joomla! 1.6: Too bad we won't be able to comment on that once it's released... unless of course you install disqus comments

6. Joomla! 1.6: Your solution to the noisy minority problem

5. Joomla! 1.6: Comments are so web 2.0! Remember this is still 1.6!

4. Joomla! 1.6 : K2 without the Comments, Media Manager, Ratings, Tags or Custom Fields

3. Jooma! 1.6 : "No Comment"

2. Joomla! 1.6: Comments? We don't need no stinkin' comments!

1. Joomla! 1.6: Yea, and ATAAW screwed that up, too!

Comment by Amy Stephen on May 8, 2010 at 9:50am: Robert is such a good bad boy. Love it!

Comment by Steven Trullinger on May 8, 2010 at 9:55am: I have no comment about this

Comment by HarryB on May 8, 2010 at 11:49am: Hey, it separates us from the crowd, unlike all those others who pander to end users by including little used features such as comments in their core distributions. ;-)

Comment by Mark W. Bender on May 8, 2010 at 2:01pm: If it wasn't for us "Rabble Rousers" over here at ATAAW, the Joomla! Community Magazine would be nothing but a "pipedream"

Comment by Amy Stephen on May 8, 2010 at 4:14pm: Hey! Someone has to be Statler and Waldorf.

If you honestly thought you could not include comments and get away with doing it as someone who was setting a good example, then, I cannot help you.

Many of us were really looking forward to comments. Some of us more than ACL, even. So, we can either pretend it's really great that comments aren't in core (OK, some like Brian actually think that), or we can get mad and say "Off with their heads!" or we can poke a little fun at it.

You might not like it, but guess what? We don't like it, either. But, we love Joomla!, and we even care about you guys. If only you would *feel our hugs* then it would be so great.

Week, after week, after week, in the best seats in the house Statler and Waldorf shared their *clears throat* opinions. True fans. See the good.

Wonder if Sully wants you submit that for the joomla store?
