Joomla! 4.0 or Next, Joomla! Platform or Framework, WTF is going on!?
A lot of discussion and confusion has been going on lately about the direction of the Joomla! project. What's in store for the CMS, what's going on with the Platform, why a new direction with the Framework, and how's all of this tie together. I personally don't have all of the answers, but what I can share is my own vision for the future and how everything ties together.

As a trainer I am occasionally asked if there is any Certification available after the training and all I can offer is a certificate of completion or attendance.
(There is definitely a cultural difference where some countries and cultures place a high value on formal qualifications.)
In the final days of Mambo I was excited about the possibility of the project offering a more formal "official" certification process. That never happened and today I am glad it didn't as I do not believe that there is any real value in certification or that it can work in the real world.
