Marketplace for Joomla! 1.5

Subscription

The release of Marketplace v2.0 was scheduled for February 2010 but it will now be March. I rather release one Release Candidate (RC) to test everything properly.

The Early Bird subscription is open. Subscribe now and save 10 Euros. The regular price for the 12 months Marketplace subscription will be 25 Euro.

With this early subscription you a) support the development and b) save money.

You will get access to all Beta Versions and Release Candidates of Marketplace and of course to all upcoming versions during the subscription period.
