The Joomla team today released version 1.0.13 “Sunglow”, which corrects multiple bugs, as well as several minor security issues.

Let’s make it two straight for Joomla this year! [link]
Packt Publishing recently announced details for their 2007 Open Source Content Management System award, adding categories and widening the level of participation, so that the prize money is distributed across a wider array of projects.
Joomla, of course, was the 2006 winner, so the Joomla community has the opportunity to make it two straight! So get your nominations in, and then be sure to make your vote counted!
