Notes on Joomla 1.5 compatibility

Joomla 1.6 has dropped the ability to run pre-1.5 components in "compatibility mode." This means that any component that we expect to use on Joomla 1.6 must be "1.5 Native". Here's the status of the components we use:

• GMaps Pro 2.0 RC2 is compatible with 1.5, I've installed this version and it is buggy. We need to wait for them to clean it up.
• Event List. Current version works with 1.5 in native mode.
• Expose Prive - only in legacy mode - no development
• Nice Talk - legacy only - no development
• Sticky Message Pro - latest version is 1.7.7 (which is installed) and is 1.5 native
• CB Mailing - we've edited so heavily we will have to deal with it. Version we are on is 1.5 native. (The functionality that we user works in 1.5 native mode. Still need to check that the mailing functions work.)
• Google Analytics Bridge - 1.5 native
• CB Photo Gallery - 1.5 compatible, we are on 1.2 RC2, which is the latest
• Alternate Home works in 1.5 Native
• All Links works in 1.5 Native
• Login Redirect works in 1.5 Native
• Add yourself to the reunion attendees fails. Fixed, minor changes to db access.
• Summary reunion list is ok
• HAA Reunion Mgr admin fails. Made minor changes to db access.
• HAA Reunion CB plugin is ok
