We are updating GroupJive!

About the new version of the component:

Because it is difficult to make a component J1.0 and J1.5 compatible without legacy mode, we decided to port GroupJive onto the Community Builder framework, which Beat, the lead CB developer introduced in the latest Community Builder release version 1.2.

We talked a lot about that and had discussions regarding the pros and cons of dependency on Community Builder. Since GroupJive was already Community Builder dependent, this might not affect many of our users. For others who may desire to install GroupJive without the CB Component: you only need the framework files of CB. We will guide you through how to accomplish this and demonstrate how to install.

Using the CB framework also opens up the possibility for 3rd party developers to write GroupJive plugins just like the plugins for CB.

The current state of the project is:

• We have ported the last GroupJive version onto the CB-framework
  
  
• GroupJive works with J1.0 and J1.5 native and should also work with Mambo (as does the CB Framework)
  
  
• A private test group is testing the component with J1.0 and J1.5 to find bugs associated with porting to the new Framework
  
  
• When we are ready, we will release the new version
  

Sincerely,
Michael aka Stiggi and your Groupjive Team 

Just a quick note to let the community know that the Joomlapolis website is now powered by CB 1.2 RC2! The Joomlapolis website team has been helping out as much as possible to get CB 1.2 to reach stability. In fact, CB 1.2 RC1 was installed on Joomlapolis before it was released to test team and doc subscribers.

In addition to CB 1.2 RC2, Joomlapolis is now PMS powered by uddeIM version 1.2+. Special thank you to Stephan (slabbi) for helping out and doing such a nice job with uddeIM.

We are also in the process of enabling the Yanc newsletter component, to start better communication with our community ... so make sure your newsletter subscriptions (at this time - Joomlapolis Tablet by Aristotele) are enabled in your profiles!

One month after the release of CB 1.2 RC (aka RC1) (read here), the CB Team is proud to announce the release of CB 1.2 RC2 to its documentation subscribers and its supporters.

All identified issues (tracked here) have (hopefully) been fixed and this second release candidate will be closer to stability. As previously stated CB 1.2 RC (previous release candidate) has been installed and is in operation on Joomlapolis and has been performing nicely.

Once again, we would like to thank our supporter and contributors and to ask them to post their feedback, findings, potential bugs, and documentation suggestions to the new forum areas created on Joomlapolis (here). Your feedback is needed in order to reach a stable release as soon as possible.

After a grueling, lengthy and patience taxing process, the CB Team is proud to announce the release of CB 1.2 RC to its documentation subscribers and its supporters.

As already mentioned in previous Joomlapolis articles (here), CB 1.2 (codename [eleftheria]) is the first CB release that operates natively in three CMS code-bases (Joomla 1.0.X, Joomla 1.5.X and Mambo compatible) without the need for extra (legacy type) plugins or libraries.

In addition to this cross CMS freedom, CB 1.2 RC has a great deal of additional features and enhancements.

A non-exhaustive list of the new CB 1.2 RC features has already been posted here.

The CB Team would like to thank the entire community, its documentation subscribers, its test team, its forum helpers, the third party developers and its newbies.

Documentation subscribers will find the CB 1.2 RC distribution package along with and updated CB 1.2 RC detailed documentation pdf file in their authorized download area.

Once again, we would like to thank our supporter and contributors and to ask them to post their feedback, findings, potential bugs, and documentation suggestions to the new forum areas created on Joomlapolis (here). Your feedback is needed in order to reach a stable release as soon as possible.

As we are approaching the CB 1.2 RC release (codename [ELEFTHERIA]) for our supporters (track status here), the CB Team would like to officially outline some of the many new features that are currently in CB 1.2 and are being tested by our test team as we speak. This is by no means an exaustive list and is meant solely to inform and prepare our community regarding the really nice work that has been implemented. CB 1.2 RC will be released first to our documentation subscribers (click here to subscribe for 2008 now!) as a special thank you for their support and then later on to the community. This will happen as soon as it passes CB test team tests, hopefully within the next week.
