Joomla! Rocks on Its 6th Birthday

Today is Joomla's 6th birthday!

On September 1st, 2005 the Joomla name was unveiled for the first time.

On September 1st, 2005 many of us started an exciting journey and we're delighted that you've joined us along the way.

Last year on this day we said a huge "Thank You!" to everyone involved in the project.

This year we're going to briefly look back at where we've been. Joomla is still growing and thriving. In the last month alone we passed three important milestones:

• 500,000 Joomla.org forum users
• 25,000,000 Joomla downloads from Joomlcode.org
• 8000 listings on the Joomla Extensions Directory
