August 2020 marked an important milestone in the Joomla's story.
In fact, on August 17, the Community celebrated the 15th birthday of our beloved CMS and Open Source Project.
Fifteen years of work, commits, pull requests, comments, suggestions, improvements, releases, initiatives and much more.
Joomla is unique in the CMS scenario, not being backed by any financial corporation and being operated only by the passion and the hard-work of its volunteers.
We should be grateful for the long list of people who contributed over the years to Joomla, from its founders who had the courage to fork from Mambo and created this amazing Project and its Community.
