 <title>More Mambo core developers go missing in action</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3747</link>
 <description><![CDATA[Someone posted a comment about this and it's true. Four more of Mambo's core developers have jumped ship and started a new fork of the content management system. Below you will find their reasons for doing so as posted on the website. I am curious though as to why they did not join the Joomla! group.
The MiaCMS Story
MiaCMS is a fork of the Mambo CMS. Why a fork? We felt that the policies, processes, and priorities of the official Mambo Foundation were having a negative impact on the code and the community. Innovation, creativity, and team spirit have all but been eliminated. Thus the fork. Much of the same crew that built you Mambo 4.5.3+ through 4.6.3 are here now continuing development on the same award winning software base that everyone has come to know and love. Let us make clear we never gave up on the product or the community, but rather just the Foundation which controlled it.
The MiaCMS project was initiated by four individuals with profound knowledge of the Mambo CMS system. The founding team includes Al Warren (alwarren), Chad Auld (cauld), Ozgur Cem Sen (ocs), and Richard Ong (arpee). Together we have held the following roles within Mambo over the years; project leader, board member, steering committee member, core team leader, quality team leader, documentation team leader, and server administration. Those who know the project well will recognize those listed as what was the majority of the current core Mambo development team. Who is left to carry on Mambo development? The answer is not many. We plan to continue down the revolutionary path we laid out for Mambo before ultimately cut our ties to the Mambo Foundation. Just that we will be doing it as MiaCMS from this point forward. So again... this is a fork, we do give credit to Mambo for past work done, and we do aim to make MiaCMS even better (in fact we think it already is) !

 <title>Login problems and hosting moves</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3746</link>
 <description><![CDATA[It has come to my attention that many Hiveminds members have not been able to login consistently. I am working on this and appreciate the emails informing us of the situation. Unfortunately I will have to do this on a one by one basis and require your user name to lookup your login info. So if you send a email please include this.
The source of the problems seems to have been that Dreamhost moved Hiveminds magazine to a newer server. As it happened I was also trying to upgrade some of the scripts and design. So some information may have been lost. We will get this fixed so please be patient.  ]]></description>

 <title>5 reasons why the Drupal  CMS is not ready for the enterprise</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3740</link>
 <description><![CDATA[Many Open Source content management systems written in PHP want to be recognized by the business industry as being "enterprise" ready. This is not only a mark of prestige and status but places them in a position where large companies are ready to invest in the software as a platform for their projects. Drupal is now trying making its move to be enterprise ready but has a long way to go.

 <title>Joomla! 1.5 Hello World Component in MVC</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3738</link>
 <description><![CDATA[One of the hardest things to do in any of the more popular CMS is to create and extension or module. This is because the easieer it is for the end user the more complicated the code and procedure become for the programmer. If you are not the originating programmer then you have your work cut out for you. Depending on the level of documentation and the willingness of others to part with needed information it can be easy or hard. Sometimes though you just need a good "Hello world" script to get you started in the right direction. Petr Vojtechovsky wrote an excellent tutorial on how to use the new MVC framework in Joomla! to create a component. Here are the files.]]></description>

 <title>YouTube down again??</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3735</link>
 <description><![CDATA[YouTube is having big problems or they are being attacked again. It seems that here in europe the youtube website has been non-contactable for a few minutes at a time intermittently. This is the second time within a months period that they have suffered from some form of outage. 
This may be proof that YouTube can never work because of the amount of stress it places on the free web. So maybe a pay internetworking system will soon be in the Google thinking.

 <title>How to do Drupal CMS content types</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/node/3729</link>
 <description><![CDATA[One of the most important parts of being able to create a useful website is to be able to type the content. You want to be able to have content that is created for a specific purpose or section. Shoppingcart items, jobs, blog entries and more can be mocked up within the Drupal system. Drupal is not alone in having this feature but it is one of the easiest CMS (typo3 and ezpublish are incredibly difficult) to do this in once you get the hang of it.
