Hello, I met Joomla! lead developer this weekend, and attended a Joomla! 1.5 demo. Joomla! 1.5 is the next Joomla! release, currently in alpha/ beta. It will mark the first important release since Joomla! "spooned" from Mambo. Notable changes were: - A new install system with a very basic notion of install profiles! - Internationalization: interface translation only - Database abstraction layer - Separation of logic and presentation layer - Improved APIs, making it a better developer platform Clearly, they have been playing catch-up with Drupal. :-) They also stated that Joomla! 2.0, the version after Joomla! 1.5 will have a node system like Drupal. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
