Even if this project is not dead, but there has been no progress or development in these 10 years

Hi Xiran,

Seriously? Do you really call it a "no progress or development in these 10 years" ?

@xiran

I agree and it's pretty obvious. No new users, barely a community and just maintenance of the old concepts to death.

The code itself and the github activity is the least of the problems Xoops has, I think.

There's no vision (at least not properly presented) and I can't even imagine some young new web developers coming to this website and getting excited about Xoops.

I checked in to see if there's at least something left here from the good old days, but it appears everyone is perfectly fine with the way things are so I will see myself out.

hi Sophie2
hi xiran

I'm not understanding why you are not satisfied with XOOPS

What kind of a niche would you like to be filled by XOOPS?
What kind of progress would you expect?
If the code is a problem, what would you suggest?
Dou you have visions of a modern CMS?

There are always two kinds of people in Open Source:

1) Those who come and see opportunity to help and contribute

2) Those who come and always complain, without contributing


Sadly, Sophie2 is a perfect example of the second group of people. She came after many years of absence, she trashed the project in order to feel better about herself, and then she left.

XOOPS is Open Source, i.e. it is up to the people to contribute and make it better. Nobody is stopping anybody from forking XOOPS from Github, contribute to it, and make it better!

Paraphrasing John Kennedy: "Don't ask what XOOPS can do for you, ask what YOU can do for XOOPS"
