I've set a new subdomain http://demo2.waltercedric.com with Joomla 1.1 (soon to be renamed into Joomla 1.5) This is a showcase server where You'll be able to test all my component including access to administrator panel. About Joomla 1.5 The sheer volume of changes in the Joomla! core (Joomla! framework) made a minor point (.1) increment inconsistent with the amount of work undertaken. While it may not be obvious by simply looking at release dates, today's Joomla! core has mutiple technology shifts under the engine.
Much of the work reflects meeting the expectations from requests by the international community, to make Joomla! fully internationalised — and this was given the highest priority. Lead developer of 1.5 Johan Janssens said the development issues involved in implementing internationalisation required "significantly more developer muscle compared to what shipped in Joomla! 1.0".
"With the commitment to internationalisation to make Joomla! fully capable of multi-lingual support we began in earnest to provide support for Unicode (UTF-8)," he said. "This decision alone required mass chunks of the core to be refactored, and then some third party libraries were found to be incapable of supporting the UTF-8 character set and had to be either customised or replaced." read more at Joomla.org
