and also we would like to invite you to listen to the last weeks Bob Bloom interview with Mr. Johan Janssens the Core Architect of Nooku Framework and Nooku Content projects. He is also the co-founder of Joomla! project and former lead developer of the Joomla! CMS and framework who developed a major part of the existing Joomla! 1.5.
This article has already been posted on the Anahitapolis blog, however for many who are still unaware of that website, here is the link. This event was organized by our wonderful friends Boris Mann, Sonia Ryan, and Roland Tanglao from the Bootup Entrepreneurial Society who gave us the spotlight for 30 minutes on July 7th 2009 at the WorkSpace in a room with at least 60-80 people from the vancouver technology community. Thank you so much for this opportunity guys!
Here is the video and since the slide show is not quite clear in it we have also embeded the presentation as a slideshare in this blog post for you. Thank you Roland for the great video that you’ve made. The the other project that presented after us was BuddyPress from Automattic. These are the same great folks who have devleoped the WordPress blogging software.
Yesterday Peter Russel interviewed me about the Anahita Social Engine ™ and how we used the beloved Nooku Framework to develop our social web development technology. I think despite the stuffy nose caused by summer allergy and being up early after late hours of working the night before, I managed to communicate what we have been cooking up for the past 18 months!
I wish my good friend and partner Ash Sanieyan from Peerglobe Technology could be there in the video too. Having spent countless of sleepless nights and long working days together on the Anahita project he could have offered very interesting inputs about the technology from his own perspective. Perhaps next time he will the one on the spotlight while I’ll be coding and fixing bugs
Thank you very much Peter, Johan, and Mathias (the Nooku folks) for this interview
Update: alright problem is solved. This time I have used the WordPress K2 theme which turned out to be able to handle multiple columns perfectly and it has been well maintained by its creators. So do not use the 3ColumnK2 theme it seems to be dormant and it no longer works with the version of WordPress.
Just an hour ago I’ve upgraded to the WordPress 2.7.1 however the probelm is that 3ColumnK2 theme that is used as the base for developing the rmd Studio blog theme, has some issues with the recent version of WP. For example you can’t click on the arrow above and go to the previous page. Unfortunately seems like that the 3ColumnK2 project has been dormant which means I either have to fix this theme myself or redesign a whole new theme.
Anybody else experiencing the same issue? I’d appreciate your comments.
