Source -Microsoft signs agreement to contribute to Joomla open-source project.
Microsoft has signed the contributor agreement for Joomla, one of the biggest PHP-based open-source applications.
Josh Holmes, a UX Architect Evangelist with Microsoft, has more about the arrangement on his blog:
“Obviously it means that Microsoft employees can contribute to Joomla!. That’s exciting all by itself as Joomla! is the second largest PHP application in the world. In fact, that’s already happened in conjunction with the signing as Ruslan Yakushev and Don Raman have already contributed code to add WinCache support to Joomla!“
