Following a very successful first release, ImpressCMS has been nominated as SourceForge's Best New Project in their 2008 Community Choice Awards. Visit the ImpressCMS SourceForge Project page for more information and nominate it, or visit the nomination page.

In such a short time, so much has been achieved and our project just continues to gather momentum at an increasing rate, We're soon due our latest release with a mammoth amount of feature additions.

Because of the hard work from our community, in only 5 months since we started out we've had 27 people commit new lines of code, new functions, new features and much more. Out of those 27, 5 developers have committed more than 100 times each.

Intruders.tv recently interviewed Marc-Andre Lanciault about the future of CMS, Web 2.0 and how the ImpressCMS Project is responding and preparing for that future.

Not only is ImpressCMS improving as a content management system, it is also crafting itself into a community management system, making it easy for users to create sites and build a highly interactive community online. This interview gives you a preview of how ImpressCMS maintains an open development environment and a few of the things to watch for as this new CMS evolves.

The ImpressCMS Team cordially invites you to the launch of "Addons" - the extensions repository for the project.

The Addons site will be the hub for the current, and future extensions available for ImpressCMS. Here you will find a growing inventory of: Documentation, Editors, Languages, Libraries, Modules, and Themes; among other things.

Addons is a prime example of the power and flexibility of ImpressCMS.

Without our users and the brilliant people behind each and every contribution - Addons, nor ImpressCMS, would not be here. So a special thanks goes out to all of you, users and developers alike, for making this all possible.

8 January 2008 -

Over the last 6 months, discussions have heightened over the future of the XOOPS project. During that time, several things have become evident and recounting them here is not our purpose.

While we were encouraged by the efforts and progress of the Draft Proposal Team and we continued to participate with them in hopes to produce something that would lead to a brighter future for XOOPS, recent events continued to unfold and compound and we have moved to establish a new project - ImpressCMS. ImpressCMS promotes open development, security, stability, extensibility, accessibility, compatibility, user-friendliness, standards compliance, social networking and so many other great things – all the things XOOPS could and should be.
