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
