JDay Bosnia - Make Joomla!, not war! |
|
Tešanj (pronounce 'Techagn') is a small ancient town in the North of Bosnia and Hercegovina, a now independant country that was once part of what was Yugoslavia.
Although it looks now totally peaceful, nothing showing, except for a few bullet holes on some walls, the terrible war that took place in that region of the world from 1992 to 1995, I am told that, beyond the curtains, some old loves and hates are stil present between the 3 communities.
It is there that was held on August 12th and 13th, the first JoomlaDay ever in what was Yugoslavia. The ancient Illyrian ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illyria ) sun symbol was chosen as the logo of the event, to further show the need for unified efforts in the region.
It was the occasion for 3 co-founders of Joomla – Emir Saki |

Who is Joomla-jenkins? |
|
The other day someone watching the platform at github asked me “Who is Joomla-jenkins?” That certainly seems to be someone doing a lot. Except it’s not exactly someone.
Jenkins is continuous integration software (a fork of the Hudson project) which is used to ensure the stability of the platform by running unit tests, style checks and various analytics.
Ian MacLennan recently announced a process change where all pull requests (requests from someone to have code committed) should go to the staging branch. That’s to allow the commit to be made and tested. If the tests fail then the “pull requester” needs to fix the code before it is committed. That way test breaking code never makes it into the “point of truth” master branch. |
The Story Behind the Story of the 1.7 Release |
|
Every Joomla! release has its moments of drama, tension, and transcendence. Inside the Joomla! Bug Squad in the run up to the release is always a flurry of intense activity. 1.7 was no different in that.
While most people probably know that the release of Joomla! 1.7 was a first because it was a time based released: back in January it was announced that the release of 1.7 would be in July, and the great thing is that we did it to the exact date and minute that was picked in late June. That doesn’t mean there were no hair raising moments though! |
