XOOPS Project releases Version 2.3.3
World’s leading Open Source CMS solution gets even better
After over 25,000 downloads of its previous version in just three short months, the XOOPS Project, world’s leading Open Source CMS (Content Management System), is aggressively building on this success and has released a new version of its award winning software - XOOPS 2.3.3.
This release focused on bug fixes and usability improvements. Some of the major changes are:
- improved profile and pm modules
- improved installer
- improved theme
- improved tinymce editor
The improved installer is the highlight of this release, providing an easy way to install not only the program, but also important modules. The key for this new release was an active collaboration of XOOPS developers from around the world: China, France, UK, USA, Germany, Peru, Libya, Belgium, Netherlands, and several others. The worldwide XOOPS community is one of its strength, resulting in a quick translation of new releases into over 20 languages.
XOOPS has not only a very loyal base, as the number of downloads suggests, but is also highly respected in the industry. In 2008 it was a finalist in SourceForge Community Awards and in the CMS Awards by Packt Publishing. It also won the prestigious 2008 China Open Source Software Contest Award.
As CMSWire recently stated: "With two prestigious recognitions in less than 6 months, XOOPS is flexing its muscle as a powerful, PHP based open source Web CMS. Look for more big things from XOOPS throughout 2009. Who knows, maybe that finalist spot in PacktPub.com’s contest will become a winning spot this year."
