Today, I have sent build 2 of Community Builder 1.0 stable to the 75+ testers and 3PD of CB's test-team for final tests.

Test-team Build 2 is correcting all known bugs of RC2 and 1.0 build 1 (about 50 bugs found in build 1 and in RC2 since build 1 release), and brings no new major features, just corrections and smoothing, insuring stability.

This build should lead to the long-awaited Community Builder 1.0 stable release within the next couple of weeks. Community Builder 1.0 stable is compatible with with Joomla! 1.0.x to 1.1 beta 1 and with Mambo 4.5.0 to 4.5.3, hopefully also 4.6 beta 1. It has been quite a chalenge to get this extra-wide backwards and forward compatibility.

For us, it has been a long stability trip in features-freeze mode, and also a long wait for all of us. The last tests starting now are a key task that needs to be done properly, to avoid last-minute bugs. Thanks to all for your patience, and also for your highly appreciated contributions and donations, in order to keep the project alive.

We are already looking forward to the next releases of Community Builder, with new features.

Special thanks to the core team and test-team for their great work during these last months.

Our Joomlapolis.com site has been updated from Joomla 1.0.3 to the recently released 1.0.8 version. The upgrade went smoothly without any problems (but we will be monitoring just in case). The Joomla core team has acknowledged the hellp and participation of our own Beat and Trail (see http://www.joomla.org/content/view/940/74/1/6/).

We have just installed Nant's Profile Gallery on JP! This is actually my first plugin that is currently in testing mode (so be patient and carefull). It has many nice but simple features. First of all it was written for CB using the API. A number of testers are also pounding away at this but I felt that I just had to let people know that I am very close. But remember I will not release until my Karma is greater than Trails! LOL!

Just visit my profile for a look see - or update your own profiles to enable your own gallery tab!

Community Builder 1.0 stable (build 1) is now in the CB Test-team's hands. Over 30 testers have replied to test-team leader Trail's call for test last week. All 37 known bugs logged by users into our bug-tracker have been corrected, while no features (and hopefully no new bugs) have been added, to deserve the stable tag. We should know more about its stability in the next days. Once the stability has been tested, we will release.

Last few nights have been particularly interesting. We got a call from Johan Janssens (Jinx), the Joomla! core development team leader, who proposed a session of interoperability tests (Joomla! 1.0 backwards compatibility) of Community Builder 1.0 stable candidate with the upcomming Joomla! 1.1 alpha 2 release.
