Re: Mambo on CakePHP brainstorm
I don't see that as an option. One thing that has to be done well, right from the outset, is the planning. A lot of work is currently being done in that area. I agree with the comments made by James K. on that - if Mambo is not planned well we will limit ourselves too much. The current development of Mambo is hitting far too many limits in what can be done. The architecture is old and cannot adapt to the needs of a modern (or future) CMS market (its still a market even though its a free product ;)) What we build with cakePHP has to be extensible and will be providing the basis for development for years to come. So, taking the ideas/architecture of an existing project would mean we would be having to factor in the ability of that code to adapt to Mambo's needs. It would be far better to start from scratch.

Re: Mambo on CakePHP brainstorm
We have already felt the pain Nate ;) Mambo has a core + core extensions. With the release of Mambo 4.6 a couple of years ago we began releasing two versions, which were called Mambo (or, in the earlier days, Mambo Complete) and Mambo Lite. Mambo Lite is the core with no core extensions. All core extensions were refactored to become optional installs. This was done with two outcomes in mind - firstly, that when Mambo went PHP5 only, the extensions would be available as a one-click install from the backend, and secondly, so that anyone could take up the core extensions and use these as a basis for further development of the functionality. So, with the next significant release of Mambo being PHP5.2+ only, and MySQL4.1+, the only distro will be effectively Mambo Lite. This makes it pretty easy for us all to get our heads around making Mambo even more modular as we bake it ;) Lynne On Nov 26, 5:20 am, Nate [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Based on your stated goals, the two suggestions I would add are: (1) Develop as many of Mambo's features as possible as extensions.

Re: Mambo on CakePHP brainstorm
Based on your stated goals, the two suggestions I would add are: (1) Develop as many of Mambo's features as possible as extensions. This will not only make the CMS itself as flexible as possible (and the CMS's extension API as robust as possible), but it will also help you 'feel the pain' of extension developers as they write new extensions or migrate old ones. (2) Develop as much of the functionality of the Mambo core itself as CakePHP plugins. This will not only make the core easily extensible, but it will enable CakePHP developers to more easily integrate Mambo code within their own applications, and lower the barrier to entry on contributing back to the Mambo core.

Re: Mambo on CakePHP brainstorm
Thanks for the feedback.. What I see a lot is people looking for a admin backend that actually works. A CMS just for the MS. I think that a fashion way of delivering data to views, and a good UI work on admin end is what people really seek. @Rafael, we are aware of the challenge that an usable and accessible backend is, it for sure will get a lot of attention I guess my ideal cms would be one that didn't use crazy complicated callback systems with hard to discover override names. Kept many of the core cake functions, used plain PHP templates with cake's core helpers, and some extra spice from the mambo team. Supported i18n out of the box. Allowed the end client to easily do the things they needed to (update content) and allowed me to do my job (build the darn thing). @Mark, since we decided to use cakePHP all the spirit of cake will live inside Mambo 5, currently Mambo supports i18n using gettext (the same than cakePHP) but additionally have a component called the Language Manager that allows the user to translate the whole software or modify his translations in any moment. But you guys know CMS systems probably far better than than any of us. So I'm sure you'll come up with a good solution? One question is how are you going to migrate the large code base of contributed modules (or whatever they are called) into mambo 5? A key question, while we try to keep backward compatibility, Mambo 5 is a total rewrite from scratch and a change in architecture, probably is too soon to say how backward compatible it would be but I guess all extensions will need modifications. Hi, Andres, take a look at the best features of Wordpress, and you will have your answer. Clean API, easy theming, and the chance to make plugins anytime. Just my two cents. @mbavio, Thank you, I'll check wordpress to get your point, currently Mambo supports 4 type of extensions, components = Major extensions, this is the king of extension that do the hard job, so there is components for Image Galleries, Form Generator, Forums, Content, Contacts, Banners, etc modules = Normally help the components to get/give input/output from/ to the user, so you have a menu module, login module, banners module, latest content module, newsflash module, polls modules, etc mambots = Mambots are hooks used to act under certain events (just like wordpress actions), currently Mambo support events for content, system, authentication, search and editors, you can trigger your own events wihtin your components using the API templates = like the Themes on other CMSs, all based on PHP, currently isn't used a template engine, you can have/use more than a single template within your website Probably the terms could change in the way to make it more clear for end users, but this can give you a idea of what currently exists and will be ported. A huge benefit for the community would be a content repository behavior. This would be somehow similar to phishys versionable, but special to content versioning.

Re: Mambo on CakePHP brainstorm
For me a clean API that is easy to use is something that I would want in a CMS. Many of the popular CMS have very complicated API's or multiple API's which are confusing. As for theming, keep it simple. I'm not familiar with the mambo code base, but I despise non PHP templates. It just makes things complicated and slower.
