@JerryLeeLewis :
Not an Option but and Alternative, its is not just going to be a Community Building social component, but with further developement a link between social networkiing and Joomla, with plans of bridging with other SN like FB, MS, Orkurt using googles Opensocial (Well just thinking loud, still far from Opensocial now)
@Nanaya:
Not yet availaible for download, but will be in the nearest furture! with you testing the demo now, give me alot of information about functionality and i am tweaking things. both functionaly and security wise, so when you grab this component, youll take to your heels (lol). Also working on documentation, its always easy this way i guess! My deadline for release was to be today(lol), but with valentines day coming and things not going so well as planned, (i wasted a whole week helping some one out

}, and my time killing me, it will definately be a great val present for joomla if things stick to plans
@Grumblemarc:
I knew you were all going to be fooled but joomunities logicc. Truely speaking, its just a bridge of components. Though some of its key aspects are components in themselve, others make use of other components, Like the photo gallery your seeing on there is RS2 Gallery revisited! and you must have use RS2 gallery to manage your picture! The Messaging is uses joomla core messaging table, but not com_messages, blog is com_mamblog(although you dont need this to have the blogs, cause mamblog in itself uses jos_content tables) The events, is a joomla component, the Joomleague controller will use com_joomleague, and so on, my plan is to make as many controllers as there are components, so user can manage everything from their profile! i have not yet thought about FB yet as forum option, but surely with the big discussion round joomla and message board intergration, i will prefer to release and wait for community feedback. The group controller is not yet ready because i am writing a stand alond component for that! will be something like group jive, but more into facebook logic.
Yes the competition will be on, with CB, just left to see who survives (lol) na, its just for fun really, its always good to have another community software! cant b
