Joomla 1.6.0 scheduled for release 10 January 2011

Joomla 1.6 is the next generation of Joomla, the most popular Open Source Content Management System in the world. This page tells you about the status of development and where you can download files.

The broad goals of Joomla 1.6 are to:

• implement an expanded access control system;
• implement a nested categories solution;
• and standardise the way extensions are built using the MVC framework.

At this time, we expect to release version 1.6.0 on 11 January 2011. This assumes we do not encounter any major unanticipated issues that we are unable to resolve before that time. The ability to deliver at these times is directly proportional to the amount of volunteer help the project receives.
