And the world will be better for this,
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove with his last ounce of courage,
To reach the unreachable star.Joe Darios, “The Impossible Dream” Man of La Mancha, 1965
By now I hope that you’ve read my previous articles—Before there was a beginning, Before the dawn of the beginning, The dawn of the beginningand Prelude to the beginning—and you have some understanding of the sequence of events that led to my decision to create a website to draw attention to some of the problems that I see with the Joomla! project. It wasn’t for lack of trying to show that I’ve spent months thinking about this and it wasn’t an impulsive decision but, by sharing a record of my deliberations, I hope my notes may help other people if they’re intending to follow in my footsteps.
You may be wondering why someone hasn’t tried this before? If someone has then I would be pleased to know because I haven’t seen something like this before.
Creating a website is fairly easy. Getting other people on-board with is not your “field of dreams”. There’s a lot of planning that goes into building a website. This article covers some of the behind-the-scenes activities that went into this website.
