Mike's Hardwoodfloors Redesigned
Site's slogan was taken literally so the layout was placed on a wooden floor. As most XOOPS sites are easy to see that they are XOOPS based we made the best out of them and blocks were used only when needed and the classic column based layout was not even approached

The XOOPS Foundation Manifesto
The goal of the XOOPS Foundation is to provide the basic means for XOOPS to grow. It is the Foundation’s belief that XOOPS is made up out of three separate but entwined units: the XOOPS Project, where the core of the XOOPS system is defined and developed, the XOOPS Communities, where support is being provided for the user base, and the XOOPS Foundation, who provides support and continuity for both the project and the community. We call this the XOOPS Trinity, in which each unit focuses its (limited) resources on specific areas of expertise. Together, they all work and collaborate to make XOOPS better. They do this as equal partners, in a professional, mature and open source spirit. That is the core of the vision the XOOPS Foundation has for XOOPS.
XOOPS Council official requests
In reply to this article, here is the XOOPS Foundation official response.
1. Hand over XOOPS Project servers to the XOOPS Project Council then managed by the XOOPS Technical Group.
The Foundation has already initiated the discussions about this with the Chairman of the XOOPS Council concerning their exact requirements and is confident we will find a solution that is mutually beneficial shortly.
2. Give full access to usage of domains that claimed by the Foundation to be used for the XOOPS Project, including the DNS of xoops.org
Selected domains are available for both Community or Project usage, upon suitable request, and depending upon availability.
As for the XOOPS.org domain name, it is well documented that this domain is still owned by M. Onokazu. He was contacted at many times in the past by the Foundation and by the XOOPS Council. No one never received any answers. Currently, the XOOPS.org domain is pointing on the current XOOPS.org server’s DNS which are controlled by EPC USA. When XOOPS.org is completely moved on the new server, we will be able to change the information on EPC USA DNS.
Response to 7th October Incident
The XOOPS Council claims that JMorris acted without authorization. JMorris was able to do so with the permissions he had on XOOPS.org for the last 3 years, permissions which were never removed by the XOOPS Council.
The XOOPS Foundation would like to state that it supports both the XOOPS Project and the XOOPS Communities, without leading them left or right. Therefore, the Foundation takes no position in the standpoint between phppp and JMorris. The Foundation supports the simple fact that this issue needs to be resolved soon as in a mature and decent manner, in order to have XOOPS move on and be able to grow again.
JMorris informed the XOOPS Foundation as well as the XOOPS Council about his action and documented his reasons. He then put back the original permissions on XOOPS.org and send all access info to the Foundation.
In the mean time, phppp and the XOOPS Council contacted Herko Commans, chairman of the XOOPS Foundation, on a personal email address and not via the XoopsFoundation.org site or via the Foundation’s public email (board at xoopsfoundation dot org). Unfortunately those messages were not seen directly by Herko, which explains the delay it took for the Foundation to react.
On October 8th, The Foundation sent the XOOPS.org access information to XOOPS Project Council with the assurance expressed by JMorris that he did not alter the site in any way nor do any damage what so ever.
While The Foundation does not approve of JMorris actions on XOOPS.org, it does not approve either of the public news posted by the XOOPS Council about terminating the account of JMorris. This should not have been handled publicly. The Foundation respectfully requests that this news should be removed immediately.
In summary, as of 9th October, the XOOPS Council has full administrative permissions on the XOOPS.org site.
We truly hope the XOOPS Project and the XOOPS Community can move forward and get back on the track XOOPS once was : the best open source CMS alive! The XOOPS Foundation will be happy to help in anyway it can to support the project and the community.

Emergency in the past two days
Emergency in the past two days
On October 6th, the xoops.org server was hijacked and all http://www.xoops.org administrator accounts permissions were removed and an account "JMorris" was presented as the only administrator account. The XOOPS Project Council also noticed other management permission changes.
The Council restored webmaster account permissions immediately and sent an official email to the email address associated with "JMorris". Message replied from the "JMorris" account's email confirmed that the permission changes were made by him. Soon after email exchanges, the permissions on http://www.xoops.org were changed again and xoops.org server root account password was changed as well.
The XOOPS Foundation, who is holding XOOPS Project's servers, was contacted several times from the very beginning since October 6th. Meanwhile, the XOOPS Project Council halted all its actions on http://www.xoops.org to wait for XOOPS Foundation's response.
By October 8th Herko, the current Foundation Chairman contacted phppp, saying that "JMorris" had given back http://www.xoops.org administrator accounts.
The XOOPS Project Council appreciates the Foundation's assistance with this issue. Meanwhile, the Project Council looks forward to valid thorough solutions from the Foundation to protect XOOPS Project's servers.

Mr. Theme Revamp (+admin)
It would be nice to receive some feedback on the theme. However, the truly special part about Mr. Theme is not really the theme...
Though I think it is pleasant
The real highlight about this site is the homogenization throughout.
I have implemented my design throughout my admin panel as well. It is a shame that I cannot let you in my admin panel to look for yourselves, however I can give you pics.
