We Are Retiring Our Oldest Joomla Components

By the end of this month (August 2007) we will have removed our oldest components from sale.  Support will continue for these components for another year, however only for existing customers.

The components about to be withdrawn are:

• ComboMAX
• mosIPN
• mosLock

ComboMAX - A Commenting Component
ComboMAX was the worlds first ever Mambo component, released for £2 even before Mambo 4.5 stable was released. ComboMAX lead the way in many ways, bringing you a commenting solution to Mambo for the first time.  ComboMAX has since been superceeded by the whole Web 2.0 era and now better, more web 2.0, comment components are leading the way. We have no plans to release another commenting component at this time.

mosIPN - Digital File Delivery After PayPal Payment  
As sales of ComboMAX increased, we made a problem for ourselves.  Customers who purchased at 4am wanted their delivery at 4am!  When we were asleep! So we developed mosIPN to handle our own fulfillment process.  In fact we still use a highly modified version of mosIPN for all our fulfillments right up to this day. We have no plans to release a new component to replace this one.

mosLock - Instant Account Creation after PayPal Payment
mosLock was our smallest ever component - it simply looked for paypal IPN and then created a Joomla User.  Nothing fancy.

Why retire these components?

Two words - BIG PLANS! We have some enormous plans for the future - some we will hint at here - some we are holding close to our chest Also witout the support burden of these older components we can spend more time supporting fewer components better.

• A new Knowledgebase Component will be released soon - its feature complete and already being used on high traffic sites (like our own!) and is even powering myjoomla.com!
• Phil-a-form - over 4 years old and still our number 1 seller every month - look out for a BRAND NEW form management system coming soon - not yet ready but will AMAZE you when you see it!
• myJoomla.com - watch this website like a hawk! This is where amazing things will soon start to appear!
• Joomla Security - We are going to totally change the way you manage you security - watch out!
• And more to come…

We are here to stay - although we may move offices to another island - we are still supporting Joomla and still working very hard on new exciting projects for you to enjoy.
