The Joomla! project is incredible not only because Joomla is the best CMS in the world, but also because our volunteers are skilful, powerful, and highly competent. Joomla volunteers never cease to surprise me with their optimism and positivity, always aiming to help the Joomla! project and benefit the community.
Art liberates you. It is the boundless, limitless, infinite field that allows you the freedom to express yourself. For this reason, I have always liked creativity, and throughout my career, I have been lucky enough to collaborate with creative people with more than just an artistic flair. This is also the reason I joined the JCM graphics production team. This is how I met Sandra Decoux.
A new frontier that requires careful navigation has been created by the intersection of artificial intelligence and open source principles. The Open Source Initiative (OSI) held the Affiliates Town Hall on February 27, 2025. The purpose of this discussion was to gather stakeholders from the open source community to discuss the Open Source AI Definition (OSAID) and the future of open source AI systems.
This month we have with us another amazing woman of Joomla. The lady who, for more than a decade now has been the voice of Joomla’s social media, Alison Meeks. I always liked to call her the Angel of Joomla because Alison saved the day in multiple instances, a fact that serves as a demonstration of her dedication to her role and her love for Joomla. Alison has been one of the most valuable and devoted volunteers in the Joomla community.
Hello everyone. I wish you all a Happy and Prosperous New Year 2025! (I would also like to add Creative.) I have always been a great fan of creative people.

This month we have with us another amazing Joomla woman. Her name is Christiane Maier-Stadtherr.
The passion for computer science was always one of my favorite topics to discuss.

The amazing, unstoppable women of Joomla are always here for all Joomla users. They never stop impressing us with their power and achievements. This month we have another amazing woman with us: Elisa Foltyn. Elisa has answered some of our questions to let us get to know her better.
At the moment of writing, it's Joomla’s birthday, a celebration day for all Joomla volunteers and especially for the women contributors who continuously leave their mark on our favourite CMS. With this in mind I would like to present the Treasurer of Open-Source Matters Inc.
Wonderful news! At the moment of writing, it's Joomla’s (19th) birthday.
But what is Joomla, and what are we celebrating?
Joomla is a content management system (CMS) as we all know. However, beyond this, Joomla is all the people who support it. A huge community of volunteers who are there to build, develop, extend, teach, communicate, advocate, and so much more.
