IStats 2.2 (bugfix release)

I have released a bugfix release 2.2 for the Xoops web statistics module Istats.

It is mainly version 2.1 from a guy named "sylvainb" whose website (http://www.123rando.com/ ) has been taken over by a domain grabber. I was not able to contact sylvainb, so I took over this module.

The bugfixes are:
* Istats now considers the server's timezone as set in the Xoops general settings.
* minor fixes in the German language files


I have included German and English language files. You can download it from the German Xoops support page .

Care User Group Portal goes Live

Resized ImageCare make a highly configurable fundraising database used extensively in the not-for-profit industry in the UK.

I created a User-Group Portal using 2.0.x and a modified sport theme. Most of the stuff is password protected for Care users only, so you can't really see it. There are discussion forums, a feature wishlist (where users can vote on items for development), document store - tools needed for the User group community to drive the product development forwards.

2006 Open Source Content Management System Award Winner Announced

2006 Open Source Content Management System Award Winner Announced
Tuesday, November 14, 2006 | News | Open Source

Following a nomination round and eight weeks of voting, Packt are pleased to announce Joomla! as the winner of the 2006 Open Source Content Management System Award. Joomla! collects a first prize of $5,000 and the title of Packt Open Source CMS Award Winner for 2006.
The final result, as voted for by judges from The Open Source Collective, MySQL, the Eclipse Foundation, and 16,000 users on http://www.PacktPub.com saw a tie for first place between Joomla! and Drupal. In the event of a tie, a fourth independent judge would be brought in. This was Apoorv Durga who is a member of CM Pros and runs his own blog [http://apoorv.info/] on portals and content management. This crucial vote ended up with Joomla! triumphing over Drupal by one point.

The final result was as follows:

1. Joomla!- $5,000
2. Drupal - $3,000
3. Plone - $2,000

Please note that in deciding the final positions judges were asked to give their top three, with their first choice receiving 3 points, second receiving two points and third place one point.

Choosing the top three proved to be a difficult experience for the judges, due to the quality of the finalists and their ability to suit different tasks depending on the objective of the user. "All the CMS’s that made the top 5 are very good" declared Scott Goodwin, representing The Open Source Collective, "and I wouldn't hesitate to use any of them depending on what I'm trying to accomplish."

The judges had strong compliments for all five finalists, with some of the highlights listed below:
