As some of you know already, unfortunately, Instant-Zero closed its door as it went out of business. This is definitely a very sad news for all of us.
Their modules have been very popular within the XOOPS community and some of them are also used here on our Website.
Of course, many of you were asking what will happen next.
There were two issues:
1) Where do we get support for current versions?
2) Will these modules work with future versions of XOOPS?
As in the past, we'll continue to support the modules here on our Forums, so there will be no impact on our users.
And to ensure compatibility of Instant-Zero modules with future versions of XOOPS, the developers of XOOPS will continue with maintaining, upgrading, and new development of Instant-Zero modules.
It is important for us that these modules continue to function with each and every new version of XOOPS. The current versions, which are compatible with
XOOPS 2.4.1, can be downloaded from XOOPS SourceForge (see below), and the source code has been placed earlier this week in
our SVN.
We are inviting the whole XOOPS community to help us with continues improvement and future development of these modules.
It is the beauty of the Open Source that when one developer leaves to pursue other interests, other developers from the community can continue with the development.
We would like to say "Thank you" to Herve for all his contributions to XOOPS, and wish him all the best in his future endeavors. Hopefully, one day he'll be back with his XOOPS Family!
