History OF JOOMLA!
Written by YU53P on 14:13Although Joomla debuted in 2005 as version 1.0, its roots stretch back to 2001 when the open source content management system (CMS) named Mambo was first released. Mambo began life as an internal CMS product created by engineers at the Miro Corporation of Australia. In April 2001, Mambo was initially released to the open source community. For its time, Mambo was an amazingly advanced CMS application to be freely available with full source code.
Mambo gained worldwide popularity and spawned a cottage industry of vendors selling plug-ins and templates. The developer community flourished in an environment where people could freely share ideas and source code. Mambo was well on its way to becoming the most popular open source CMS application.
Yet in 2005 there was a substantial disagreement between the open source developers of Mambo and the nonprofit foundation that had been created to guide Mambo development. Finally in August 2005, the Mambo development staff abandoned the Mambo project and began toiling to create a new CMS from the ashes of the old.
A short time later, Joomla 1.0 was released. While this new CMS was fundamentally compatible with most aspects of Mambo, the user interface and site management had been streamlined. The problems with the Mambo foundation caused the open source community to shun that product and throw all their weight behind Joomla development.
In the short time since Joomla was born, use and development of the CMS has exploded. Within its first year of release, Joomla was downloaded more than 2.5 million times. At the time of this writing, there are over 65,000 registered Joomla developers, and there are countless web sites deployed with Joomla. Even more amazing is the international embrace of Joomla. The Joomla CMS has been adopted by webmasters from Brazil to the Netherlands, from the United States to Italy, and from Australia to China.
