Did you know - there will be no comments in Joomla 1.6?
Joomla 1.6 was slated to have three big features
Recently in an IRC chat Andrew Eddie confirmed that "comments" will not be in Joomla 1.6
As the explanation of what I feel is a major announcement is buried in a comment, how ironic is that, on that irc chat.
I'm mentioning it here so that more of you will be able to read the explanation.
Personaly I'm not upset about this as I've never believed that something like comments should ever have been in the core and it would be hypocritical of me to be "shouting" about it now.
Still it's a fairly major announcement that deserves a more prominent statement.
You can read the full explanation at http://community.joomla.org
As a co-founder of Joomla! and OpenSourceMatters Inc I've never been known to be lacking an opinion or being too afraid to express it.
Despite what some people might think I'm a shy and modest man who doesnt like to blow his own trumpet or boast about achievements.
But it seems that no blog exists without an "About" page so rather than talk about what an amazingly great guy I am and list all the things I've achieved (and failed at) in life from my Cycling Proficiency Test in 1976 to winning an award for the "UK Individual Contribution to Open / Source" in 2005 here are some links.
