When i was learning my trade - a simple 800x600pix frameset was the norm.
Then frames where dead. Then you should use % rather than pixels. Then tables were hated and css was god. Then xhtml and css2 was the aim. Now you might as well watch the TV.
The current release does all my clients need or will ever need for a run of the mill site. I make my living using mambo, oscommerce and zencart and customising to the need of my clients.
The codebase has it's problems but for "free" is more than I could have accomplished in years.
My clients will still be happy when I say "Yes I can do that" to a complicated brief and have a fully working CMS skinned within a week with more "features" than they could possibly use. For what would have cost $10,000, and taken 9 months back in 2000.
For a one man band like me mambo has been a great tool. And whatever happens next the code as it stands now is more than enough for me to use for the next few years.
The article mentioned that the xxx tld is not yet available.
Yet if you go to http://www.xxx/ your get a redirect to http://www.xxx.com/ in firefox.
Is this the xxx tld working or is is a "feature" in Firefox which defaults www.whateverdomain to www.whateverdomain.com? Methinx the latter.
If so it looks likes we'll have a firefox patch next week:)

"I'm not sure what the Flash is"
In this case I think the "Flash" being referred to is Macromedia's Flash plugin. He's not very clear though is he?

Would a door like this need a cat flap?
At the end of the day what does it matter?
