Welcome to the June 2012 issue of WOX (World of XOOPS) Newsletter   (see here previous versions ) 

This month was very busy for our Module Developers, with welcome updates to several modules, such as:

NewBB 4.3 RC ,
SmallWorld 1.11 RC5 ,
News 1.67 RC3 , 
XoopsTube 1.05 RC1 ,
Defacer 1.11 Final ,,
Xortify 3.06

and few others. Many of them need help in testing, so we can solid bug-free Final releases. Please also help with translations!

Work continues on XOOPS 2.6.0, with Mage extracting features into stand-alone modules (like Banners). You can follow the development on XOOPS SVN , or you can subscribe to our SVN mailing list to receive updates.

As every month,  we would like to encourage everybody to ask a question:

What can I do for XOOPS? 
What could I contribute to XOOPS?

There are many areas where you can contribute, based on your skill level: Core, modules, themes, documentation, providing support on the Forums, and translating XOOPS into local languages.

We need to create more teamwork and more community spirit by getting more people actively contributing to XOOPS.

Let's make XOOPS a true "Community Project"!
