We did it!
Today our 200 000th member joined the forum. It's just another milestone, and doesn't tell the whole story. Suffice to say though, it is a reflection on how popular Joomla! is.

As a side note, all members of our forum who register and do not activate their account within 2 weeks are removed from our database. So unlike other sites, our membership figures are accurate in that sense. We also don't allow duplicate accounts.

PS Have you seen the excellent tutorials that have started up here: http://feeds.joomla.org/JoomlaDeveloperTutorials ? I am sure someone else will blog about them soon enough to give them some more publicity.
