Nothing particularly interesting here... Unless you're interested in Nooku, Joomla, Kohana, Django, Web Development in General, or hiring a developer like me.

are you still working with Nooku? I read your articles on starting out with Nooku, but noticed they were entered a year ago. I find myself in a VERY similar place as yourself (wanting a good PHP MVC (or HMVC) framework AND an existing CMS system combo). Nooku looked like "CakePHP meets Joomla" and that was ideal for me. Just wondering how it was going (if at all) with Nooku.

Hi! Yes I’m still working on Nooku. In fact I got employed by Johan Janssens’s company which allowed me to get a little more intimate with Nooku’s developments and the privilege to learn from the master himself.

Yes, Nooku is a great tool especially if you’re working on Web Applications inside a CMS shell like Joomla. But I’ll hardly compare it to CakePHP, Nooku is far more than that :).

Nooku is being developed in a fast pace, right now it’s in Alpha 4. There will be one alpha left, then the Beta. I think we can expect a stable by mid 2012 but that’s just a guess!

Thanks for getting in touch!
