cheers,
Hi Andy,
I am looking forward to Part 3 of your blog!
Lucid and clear writing. Kudos
However my original question was referring to David's question
if there was any upgrade path from Joomla 1.0.x to 1.5
You answered: "well, we dont have a good answer to that yet i'm afraid."
I wanted to know if there is an answer to that question already.
I have been reading the article in PHP magazine written by Mitch Pirtle
and also there is not anything to be found about upgrade possibilities.
So again how is the state of affairs in this respect?
or are you perhaps saving the upgrade path news for Part 3 of your blog?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers, HansNL

- It's still not realy resolved. We plan on having an upgrade path, just how that will work we've not finalised. It might be included in the installer, or it might be a seperate script. it might get you 90% there, it might do a 100%, we're just not sure until 1.5 is pretty close to being ready.

Well, Andy, we just have to sit tight and wait, isn't it.
I asked it because I was thinking about what I should do.
Because of my work and pressing family matters,
I can really only spend about one hour per day in researching
and trying to build my website(s).
I do sometimes more, but that takes it toll.
I was wondering if it would be better for me
to wait for 1.5 and then continue with development.
otherwise I might be doing things that have to be changed later-on
You can only be more definite about things: "until 1.5. is pretty close to being ready"
How close is it? When dou you more or less expect/hope that there is
a workable (stable) version, so that people like me can go ahead.
Of course it is fine that great strides have been taken
in development of Joomla! and I won't give up on it,
but for the moment everything seems in such a state of flux
that I really don't know what to do. Go ahead or just wait.
Then there were the updates, 1.0.9. and shortly after that
1.0.10. Update, update it is shouted at us.
That's great for all the pros but a nuisance for me.
Could you, please sketch out any sort of time frame
that you expect, more or less, that 1.5 could/will be ready?
Is it weeks or is it months?
I know this is a dificult question.
I won't hold it against you if later
it proves to be longer! ;D
Other people should do likewise, of course.
Thanks in advance again!
Cheers, HansNL

@HansNL - since you don't have much time every day to work with web stuff, you probably have not downloaded the alpha v. 1.5, yet. I try to do so every week, or so, and I will tell you, IMO, they are clearing a wide path for Beta soon.
Plus, Mitch said on the Skype broadcast --> he wants to meet the August San Francisco convention with a released v. 1.5 product. So, if you know Mitch, he gets what he wants or heads roll! < just kidding. >
No one can promise us anything -- the future in any sense is impossible to determine. What you don't see between alpha versions anymore are new directions -- you just see things starting to get nailed down -- and, to me, that is a promising sign towards release.
++++
OK. I am here, though, to see if Andy was able to modify the Fire template to "live" at a subdirectory of the domain name. I guess I will test it -- and then return to this post and ask if it doesn't work. BRB

Hi Amy,
Thanks, really, for your observations!
If it would be August that would be pretty close!
Hope so!
Well my main activities at the moment
are researching which components and modules
are interesting and really useful to me.
The Joomla Extension page is worth a daily trip.
Installing and trying out is very interesting
and frustating sometimes,
so that can keep me occupied for a while.
But going forward I would need 1.5
as that is the real starting point for the future
(whatever it may have in store for us)
Thanks again, Amy
Cheers, HansNL

Well things are shaping up! ;D
See: dev.joomla.org/component/option,com_jd-wp/Itemid,33/p,147/
But with a cliffhanger as Johan finishes with:
"A definite date for the release of 1.5 hasn’t been set yet,
this will depend on the feedback gathered in the next week
from the different working group coordinators."
Cheers, HansNL
