I've been charged with my usual creation of components and modules. It's nothing special, nothing to taxing or complicated, but with the Joomla! 1.6 beta coming up soon, I'm temped to wait and see...
I know I'll have enough to do with J! 1.6 to migrate some sites to it, or more likley, migrate our `standard batch` of plug-ins and modules (you know the ones, the three or four things you always install), just hoping that the development teams for nearly everything are keeping an eye on the development Google Groups for any potential problems (and feature conflicts - I site K2's hierarchical category feature). I've also got to manage my own list of modules/components/plug-ins!
So - how to go about developing new things, now? We've been told that if we adhere to the framework, all will be well. Will it? The alpha is getting better (try the SVN version for a different thing breaking each day
) So the options are...
- Develop for both 1.5 and 1.6
- Develop for 1.5 and hope....
I don't like ether of these options, so I'll add a third..
Don't develop it
Simple, wait until 1.6 is out. I'm sure the clients won't mind that.
