Maybe I am being a little freaked out, but over the past week or so I read something here that one of the iJoomla scripts that have been lucky enough to be converted that the 1.5 vs of the COM did not work with the legacy mode turned on... Is this the case?

Is this the case with 1.5 vs of New Portal?
Given that some MAJOR used COMS out there are not 1.5 yet, like FireBoard I am scared to death that I am waiting to roll my site to 1.5 and I will have waited for nothing because I am going to have to choose New Portal or FireBoard a la...

Please advice...

Hi,
As you can see here, we are working on iJoomla News Portal for J! 1.5. This extension will be works only with Legacy Mode turned OFF.
If you are building a new J! site, I suggest you to use J! 1.5 version and chose only J! 1.5 extensions (native).
Best regards,

So my biggest fear is true. You have asked me (and I am sure many many other users) to choose between you and iJoomla and other just as important, but not as well funded open source products. You are asking me to choose Fireboard or News Portal.

This has to be one of the most short sided choose that you guys could have made, and I am very disappointing. As an owner of News Portal and Mag I feel I have invested a lot in you all. It will take years to get all the great and useful Joomla things over to the 1.5 platform, expectantly those that are community driven, so not supporting LEGACY MODE is a poor biz decision. I would think you would want your products to be able to be installed on as many JOOMLA's as they can, you have cut out MANY MANY MANY J1.5 installs.

I, and I am sure others, are not building new sites, we are migrating out current sites over to J1.5 so we do not get to just cut out a huge part of out site because it is not 1.5...

Sad, very sad.  Sad Sad
