5. 您为 Joomla! 做了哪些工作?

自2007.11以来，陆续为Joomla开发了10多个extensions，其中比较受欢迎的有：

MultiAds ： 可以自动在Joomla content上下文里面插入一些html code，主要是插入Google adsense代码，或者其它的广告代码。

Content static :可以将Joomla文章生成html文件，从而可以大大加快响应速度。这个只是一时兴起开发的，其中的缺陷很多，包括不能和评论，投票，访问次数一起工作（可以用ajax来解决，只是比较麻烦，也会影响速度，不如直接用Cache来的更方便），不能自动清除所生成的文件（技术上很容易解决，也许下一次更新能够添加上）。对于不经常更换模板，而且速度比较慢的网站，这个插件还是非常有用的，至少，我所建的每一个Joomla站点都会用上这个插件。

mod_latestByCategoryOrSection ：可以根据用户正在浏览的文章，来显示当前Category的最新更新文章。


6. 您怎么看 Joomla 及其未来?

当时选择Joomla来建站，主要是Joomla丰富多彩的Template和强大的后台管理功能。
后来，随着自己对Joomla 1.5.x的了解和认识，慢慢发现Joomla是一个相对容易扩展，并且已经有很多扩展的CMS系统。
不过Joomla也不是完美的，Joomla 1.5.x中有比较多的冗余代码，直接导致了Joomla速度比较慢（与Drupal相比）。设计上虽然考虑了扩展性，但是扩展性不强（我对PHP语言不太了解，可能在php上面框架扩展起来比较困难）。
但现在Joomla也在不断的完善中，特别是Joomla社区很活跃，不断有新版本的更新。
Joomla的用户是幸福的，也祝愿Joomla越变越美丽。

5. What did you do for Joomla! ?

From Nov. 2007, I had contributed more than 10 extensions to the Joomla community. Among which there are several popular ones:

MultiAds : This plugin can automatically insert some HTML code on four preset positions in a content item, can be used to insert Google adsense code, or any other Ads code.

Content Static : Can generate HTML format static page for Joomla content items so that speed up the server response. It was developed by interests, and has many disadvantages, such as : can not work with commenting, rating, hits counter(can be solved by AJAX, but that is too complicated and has negative influence on speed, inferior to Cache methods), can not automatically purge the generated static pages(not difficult in tech, may be added in next upgrade). This plugin is useful for those websites that seldom changes template and suffers from slow speed. At least this plugin was used on every Joomla website I built.

mod_latestByCategoryOrSection ：can display the latest content items in the same category according to the page the visitor are viewing.

6. What do you think of Joomla and its future?

At the beginning, Joomla was chosen to build websites because of its versatile templates and powerful backend administration.

Later, with my understanding and recognization of Joomla 1.5.x, I realized that Joomla is an easy-to-extend CMS which already has lots of extensions.

However, Joomla is not perfect yet. Joomla 1.5.x has numerous redundant codes which directly cause the slow speed of Joomla (compared to Drupal). Extensibility was considered when design, but it is not flexible enough(I know little of PHP language, maybe it is hard to extend framework on PHP.)

Now Joomla is also been improving continuously, especially I noticed that Joomla community is very active, new versions are released now and then.

Joomla users are lucky. Wish Joomla become more and more beautiful.
