Welcome to the February 2011 issue of WOX (World of XOOPS) Newsletter - this time a little bit late - sorry for that! (see here previous versions)
And as always, as the first thing in each newsletter we wanted to express our gratitude to all of you who have donated moneyey to XOOPS Foundation! We truly appreciate your trust and support! This month Ian Underwood remains the biggest supporter and donor - thank you Ian! If anybody else would like to donate - please don't be shy!
Work on Xoops Engine, our "next generation" XOOPS architecture, continues!
Xoops Engine, as the new brand name for this new architecture, supports open and extensible engines with its multi-engine design. As for now there are three engines available:
- Xoops: the official engine with new architecture utilizing Zend Framework as the primary library and Smarty 3.0 as the default view templating engine, as well as some third-party libraries like jQuery. Demo will be hosted on http://www.xoopsengine.org;
- Lite: a lite version of the 'Xoops' Engine with no MySQL required, aimed for high performance scenarios;
- Legacy: for backward compatibility to support legacy XOOPS modules and templates.
Some selected features that were most requested by the community are now part of Xoops Engine:
* Built-in cache mechanism for high performance
* Clear MVC with AOP and event hook
* Extensible URL rewrite for better SEO
* App/module clone w/o code change
Highlights of the last month:

"TechMS" is a 2 columns fixed width theme for XOOPS It is one of the most detail rich themes I ever released on XOOPS and it is the new standard of future themes I'll release from now on. HERE you can view the theme installed on XOOPS 2.5 "TechMS" is dedicated to online stores based on XOOPS or technology related blogs. It features a static slider visible only on system pages, integrated user navigation, 5 different colour schemes (not active in demo) and of course is social network ready and allows easy share of links over Facebook, Twitter and My Space to name just a few. HERE you can read all about it Thank you
