After over 3 years of intensive research and development at Joomlapolis Labs, we're extremely happy and excited to finally release our next-generation Community Builder 2.0 beta 1.

These are completely awesome times for you, our Community of Community Builders and also for the CB Team.

Finally, we can share the new technology that we built over the last years, the new awesome bootstraped responsive design, the strong set of core features, a new Blogs functionality included, reviewed workflows, and our amazing XML MVC AhaWow engine.

A new CBLib Library provides modern software design patterns at the very core of Community Builder, providing a new and solid foundation for the Community Builder New Generation 2.x series and its plugins.

We are very excited not only to announce the release of CB 2.0 beta 1 to our Developer members that will follow our live webinar presentation, but by also providing a new solid foundation that will allow us to develop very efficiently more features in a very clean, rapid and reusable way.

This in turn will allow you to much more efficiently develop websites and tailor the configuration and features much easier to the list of requested functionality.

Just the awesome new look and feel by itself is a good reason to jump on the next generation Community Builder 2.0 for Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.2 as per our executive report.

But with well over 100 new features, there is something for everyone.

The CB Team will be hosting an online webinar on Thursday December 12, 2013 starting at 16:00 UTC/GMT to present Community Builder 2.0. Everyone is invited to attend but as space is limited please pre-register in order to secure your virtual seat!

The awesome new Joomla 3.2 is scheduled to be released on November 6th, 2013!

The CB Team is taking a small break from CB 1.10 and CB 2.0 tasks to prepare a CB 1.9.1 package to support Joomla 3.2.

As the CB team is actively participating in Joomla, CB 1.9.1 will be released coordinated in time for Joomla 3.2.

All existing CB websites should upgrade to CB 1.9.1 before upgrading to Joomla 3.2 for full compatibility with the new Joomla 3.2 password storage feature.

New Joomla 3.2 installation can install CB 1.9.1 by downloading it from the Free download area or through the new Joomla 3.2 Install from Web (formerly known as app-store) directly from their Joomla 3.2 administration panel (once the new store functionality is enabled on their new Joomla 3.2 site).

Eight years ago Joomla 1.0 was released.

Since then Joomla has grown into one of the most popular free (as in beer and as in freedom) Content Management Systems for websites.

With close to 45 million downloads, 7000 listings on the Joomla! Extensions Directory, hundreds of worldwide user groups and a thriving community, the future of Joomla is looking awesome!

Community Builder and Joomlapolis have been contributing to and supporting Joomla since the beginning.

Happy 8th Anniversary Joomla!
