A Christmas present from Joomla! - Version 1.0.12

Written by Cory

Sunday, 24 December 2006

It's Christmas Eve here in my little part of the world. I just put my 1-year-old (as of December 16th) daughter to bed, and I thought I would see what was going on at Joomla.org. To my surprise, a lot is happening. The core team decided that Christmas Eve (or Christmas morning, depending on where you are in the world) was a good time to release the latest stable release of Joomla!, version 1.0.12. Check it out. The timestamp on the release announcement is actually set to December 12, so it looks like they've been sitting on this one and saving it for Christmas. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and my parents would hide all of our Christmas presents in their closet so we couldn't open them until Christmas.

Merry Christmas, everyone! Time to open your present.

Yeah, I wonder if they'll remove that. Given the seemingly non-urgent nature of this release, it probably didn't matter that they decided to wait until Christmas to release it.

Merry Christmas to you, too!

About HowToJoomla

HowToJoomla was started in September 2006 by me, Cory Webb, a long-time Mambo/Joomla user with a desire to give back to the community that has given so much to him.

HowToJoomla is not the best, most comprehensive Joomla tips site out there. That's not the goal. The goal is to share some of the knowledge and experience that I have gained through years of using the world's best content managment system. I hope that you will find this site useful and visit often. As I come across new tips and ideas, I will post them here for all to see.

I hope you enjoy using HowToJoomla and find it very useful.

Please take some time to read the Disclaimer.

Thanks for visiting!

About Me

I am a 28-year-old husband and father of a beautiful baby girl named Lucy. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, an MBA from Baylor University, and over 4 years experience working with the Mambo/Joomla CMS.

On February 1, 2008, I started a web design, development, and consulting company specializing in designing and developing custom Joomla-powered websites. The new company is aptly named Cory Webb Media, LLC. The double meaning is purely unintentional, but with a last name like "Webb" it is difficult to escape the obvious puns. If you are looking for professional assistance with your website, please feel free to contact me to discuss your project.

I also run HowToJoomla, CoryWebb.com (my personal website/blog), and JoomlaForm.com (a site dedicated to promoting good design in the Joomla! community). In my spare time (if there is such a thing), I volunteer with the youth ministry at my church.
