Joomla 2.5 Beta to be released December 20th 2011
On November 30th, 2011, Jean Marie Simonet wrote on the Joomla community blog:
“We plan to release Version 2.5 beta on or before December 20th.”
The upcoming non-beta release is scheduled to be released in January of 2012, but it looks like Joomla addicts will be able to get a taste of the new 2.5 version of the popular CMS.
The new features have not been announced, but Jean writes:
“To make this schedule, we have until December 12th to propose and test new features. “
Does this mean the developers are keeping a lid on the new enhancements (other than improved search) because they are not ready? Or are they not exactly sure what addition will be made? Either way, hopefully the Joomla developer team can meet their deadline so all of us Joomla enthusiasts can see for ourselves what all the fuss is about.
Think you’re ready for Joomla 2.5? Make sure you’re prepared!

No longer will people search for an annual event and get results from 2009, but instead will get information on the latest event. Google is always trying to bring back better results with every search query, and no longer returning old information in the top results is a great step to a better search engine. Continue reading
