I realize there's a lot of unsatisfied people after the launch of 1.6.
Out of curiosity I googled for joomla forks and found a distribution
in development called Molajo. Even though they claim they're not a
fork, I found it quite an interesting project to keep an eye on.
It seems there was a talk about it in JDNYC 2010 - which I missed -
according to a video I saw.
What are your thoughts about it?
It has not had a release in over a year. In my book, that makes it a
dead project.
OTOH Joomla 1.7 is sooooo close to a terrific system... a LOT of 'under
the hood' features have been added that I can see from the direction
their going things may well improve significantly in 1.8. The number
of new features making itself into core have jumped astronomically since
moving to github. It makes it so much easier to suggest and add a
feature to Joomla - you implement it in your own branch and submit a
pull request. No creating patch files, importing, exporting, and such.
The CMS itself really needs to get onto the same version control platform.
