This new version is not an upgrade to the previous one - but
is a whole new architecture, has enormous advantages over Joomla! 1.0 in the
areas of usability, internationalization and of course extensibility. Now it is
much easier to build extensions due to the comprehensive new application programming
interface. The user interface has been considerably simplified and there is
support for extended character sets, right to left languages, and translation
of all static text in the front end and the administrator allows enhanced
internationalization and worldwide use. The administrator Interface has been
substantially improved and reworked to provide more control yet have simple
presentation. The administrator Interface is also available in various
languages using language pack which is also an added benefit.
Even before this stable release - Joomla! 1.5 has been taken
up by the Joomla! community at a phenomenal rate and an enormous amount of
sites built around the Joomla! 1.5 framework have already been developed and
published. Joomla! is also the winner of the Best Open Source PHP CMS 2007
