The initial idea of the extension relates back to year 2003 when Mambo didn’t know anything about multilingual websites. The first initial version was called MambelFish as an analogy to the famous Babelfish from Douglas Adams. Understanding that translations are not just a simple copy of the characters in a different order you very easy come to the term localization. In fact you need to change much more and this is why JoomFish focus on the translation process rather than the automatic translation concepts.
After 10 years of development and finally some great alternative extensions within the Joomla Community we decided to cease out this extension. With 122.173 users the JoomFish forum belongs to one of the big forums in the community and the topic of multilingual websites was very often linked to JoomFish directly.
