Just found out the whole debacle from Miro’s part about trying to strong arm the project from its developers. Really a case study on “Stupid things clueless companies do when dealing with a successful Open Source project”.
All I can say is, you do not kill the hen with the golden eggs. So I bid good riddance to Miro’s Mambo, and move gladly to Joomla. Hope the new folks at Miro can do half the great job that the Joomla developers have shown capable of doing.
For more details on the whole thing see Open Source Matters, the web site for the Joomla project, and the Wikipedia page that links to other news sources.
(Yes, I am behind on my news reading)
