Today, I have a special thought for all of the active community in creating extensions for Joomla. Without them, Joomla would not be what it is today with over 4090 extensions!

I will not talk of course time spent in developing these components to the detriment of family life or other leisure and everything after a good day's normal work. All that most of the time free. While it is true that sometimes I am angry when end users can remove copyright statements without at least asking permission and the developer of this component on which they have nothing cost else just their implementation. A small mail is still fun! The copyright notice is just the reminder that created this extension and mention that there are real people behind the extension, whether large or small!

But I would not finish this article without mention other players who also participate in this great adventure: it is the translators. The forgotten ones free. It also requires hours of work to translate all these extensions. They too are entitled to compliance as well as our developers. Without them, the extensions would only partially exploited and would not round the ground.

So just to finish this article for individual users or companies webservice using Joomla and its free components, have also thought and respect for all of the active community of translators.

Following the tragic earthquake in Haiti January 13, I decided to reverse all of my gifts purchased since 1 January on my site for victims of Haiti. I would like to thank the few donors who have agreed to pay a few euros on my site to support me in developing my components. Donations to me are actually intended to help support the work of  "Médecins sans frontières" http://www.msf.org and allow the wounded received first aid on site. Since 1 January, I received exactly 85 euros.

Thank you all.
