Wow, quite an accomplishment! I'll be interested to see how existing 1.0.x extensions work with 1.5. BTW, there are a few typos in the announcement...

Congrats to the dev team, this is quite a leap for the project helping us get away from our $ambo roots and onto bigger and brighter things. Thanks again for your hard work.

Look, it's a CMS!

great work -- lots of work!
This is such an awesome community!

I admit I'm surprised by the chosen codename, as I expected another fancy Egyptian deity as a follow-up of little Khepri, which as been an excellent bridge from the 1.0 Sun theme nonetheless. Something like Heka or Heget maybe.

Have fun,
CirTap

(it´s the only thing I´ve found googling: without doubt it was in that spirit of developing new things)

Maybe I'm too critical

The good: The MVC architecture is excellent! Congrats on the dev team!
The bad: various webdsigners won't like that their _tpl_myptemplate is not loaded
The ugly: (personally) I've to write off 10-15% of my users because username + duplicate e-mail adress is not allowed anymore (legacy)

Nevertheless, I think it's a great product, but I need to hack it

Woohoo!!! :D

I'm sooooo happy!! I've been developing a couple of sites using the nightly builds, hoping for an RC release before I was ready to go live... and here it is, a few weeks before I need it!  :D

Great work folks!!

Excellent! I have a work in progress ready to be migrated over :)

After all GPL discussions we needed some positive news  ;)

And don't forget to upgrade your 1.0.12 sites to 1.0.13 :)

Thank you very much.

I hope, that the ongoing developement process is getting a milestone very soon and 3rd party can really start to test and develope on J1.5.

It is very nice CMS, very very nice.

Soon I will put it up, my site. Have been waiting for this day for a long long time. And now.... THANKS!!!! WIiiiiiiiiii!!!

One question.

Will there be upgrades from now on?? So RC1 > RC2 will be an option? And then from RC2 > Stable as well ?

Thank you again,

/jon

JoomlaDay Austin was fabulous ... Florida next, okay? Surely there are enough Joomlaphiles in the Sunshine State to make it worthwhile. But I would do it all over again, even if I did have to travel! You guys are really impressive ... the core team, the devoted acolytes, all y'all (yeah, a few hours in Tejas and I got my "y'all" back!)!

All hail the Core Team!  Much thanks!

i cant wait to install it and try it out

>> We've codenamed Joomla! 1.5 RC1 "Mapya" which is Swahili for "new"

Actually "mapya" is plural for "mpya". So i guess the word you are looking for is mpya.

Also: kipya, vipya, jipya, lipya etc

This of course coming from a Joomla user residing in a Swahili speaking country

If anybody that went wants to drop me a hello i sure would like to hear from you - i accidentally left all my business cards that i had collected behind... not to mention my CC and DL!!!  :-[

Thankfully though some fellow attendees found them and returned them back to me before i left to drive back to San Antonio - Thanks guys you prevented putting a dampner on what was an awesome day!  :D
