Working Groups

Development Working Group

The main responsibilty of the development working group is taking care of the development of the Joomla! application framework and the Joomla! Content Management System (CMS). Beside the development of the Joomla! codebase the development working group defines the Joomla! roadmap strategy, creating (architectural) designs for major and minor versions and of course take care of bug- and security fixes in maintenance versions.

The development working group holds two teams: the Development Team and the so called Bug Squad. The teams have separate responsibilities, but together they form the development force from the Joomla! project.

Documentation Working Group

If you are looking for a way to help the documentation effort, then please take a look in the cookie jar where we have a list of small(-ish) tasks that you can pick up when you have a bit of time and can be completed without too much effort.

Sites and Infrastructure Working Group
