He has been the person re-activating the full community world-wide, traveling many places around the globe to organize TikiFests, investing money to improve the overall performance and look and feel of the application through hiring countless coders.

A tradition in the TikiWiki community, a TikiFest is when there is a meeting between at least 2 TikiWiki contributors that don't usually meet. This is an opportunity for drinking adult beverages, getting laptops out and coding wildly in group sessions, discussing about wiki technology and culture, etc. depending on the mood and context. It is a great opportunity for Tiki users and Tiki power users to meet some of the developers and learn more stuff

It is with great pleasure that the TikiWiki community releases TikiWiki CMS/Groupware 2.0

Tiki 2.0 (previously known as Tiki 1.10) is the next generation of TikiWiki. Special thanks to the countless people that made this release possible. TikiWiki is truly a community success. Over 80 people contributed 6894 commits (code changes) to the source code of version 2.0 and so many more to testing, documentation, bug reporting, etc.

TikiWiki 2.0 offers countless (really!) new features & enhancements.

It is with great pleasure that the TikiWiki community publishes the fourth release candidate for TikiWiki 2.0

Tiki 2.0 was formally known as Tiki 1.10, however, with all the amazing new features & enhancements, it deserves to be called 2.0 :-) This is the next generation of TikiWiki. Special thanks to the countless people that made this release possible. Over 2 years of work and thousands of code commits!

A new Tiki Live CD has been released including the Release Candidate 2 for the new Tiki 2.0!
