Joomla is NOT Free!

Joomla is NOT Free!

The concept of an open-source, 100% community project may seem to be a small portion of the software industry today. It was even less common over 10 years ago when Joomla! was founded. However, 100% volunteer organisations have been around for many years - providing relief to those in crisis and facing all sorts of challenges, promoting social change, and encouraging personal improvement. Each of these organisations rely on people to contribute to the cause solely to help other people.

A tag line that sticks

A tag line that sticks

I have recently taken over as the team lead of the Capitals Committee, which is the part of the organisation in charge of handling our income from sponsorships and advertising. One of my first tasks is to get some stickers designed for use at tradeshows. The thing about stickers is that they are small and are not very good promotional material unless people actually stick them on something (ideally their laptop, car, office wall, bags or similar visible area).

Sobreviviendo al Joomla! Super Sprint de Londres

Sobreviviendo al Joomla! Super Sprint de Londres

En enero tuve la oportunidad de participar de tres días intensos de colaboración y voluntariado para la gestión del proyecto Joomla!. Desde el punto de vista de un terráqueo, llegué el viernes a Londres y volví el martes a Oviedo. Sin pausa, fueron 3 días de trabajo continuo, aprovechando al máximo el tiempo disponible. En un solo lugar, pudimos resolver temas propios de cada equipo y coordinar tareas que afectan a varias áreas. En este periodo, sumamos al proyecto el trabajo contribuido continuo de 37 voluntarios durante jornadas maratónicas de 10-12 horas. Un tiempo precioso que cada uno pudo sumar a Joomla!, restando del ocio, la vida familiar o del trabajo diario.

How do you express a disagreement?

How do you express a disagreement?

These days it seems that in social networks, only negative comments are published. If a new initiative is launched, there are negative critics about why it is done and why it was not done otherwise. Also, there are those who aim to point out what is missing to complete it and that without it is useless. If you decide not to implement an idea, critics can only say that it was a bad idea. These comments are created without thinking, the product of elaborating a critic in 5 minutes, and dumped forever in social media. Without considering the time and effort of the volunteers, who in their precious free time, collaborate with the project.
