K2 for Joomla 1.6 is suppose to be released in two weeks for JoomlaDay Greece.
Upgrading from Joomla 1.6 to 1.7 should be a much easier upgrade process as there isn't suppose to be a huge change unlike in the two previous major changes in Joomla, e.g. J1.5 and J1.6.
J1.7's features haven't even been confirmed yet so no one would know what J2.0 would have in store for us all.
Rob Porter said:
My concern here is that a year ago questions about k2 and 1.6 were responded to with "we're waiting for the release candidate".. waiting for RC became waiting for release, which became waiting for a month for a response after release...
So, is K2 going to be a 1.5 Joomla only, and never go up in version? No indicator has been said about supporting 1.7 at all, from what I've seen.
I was hoping to build my next extension with K2 support, but would seem a bit wasteful for developing for an old Joomla version that will be depreciated relatively soon.

yes you can. When you uninstall K2 all your K2 items will still be there and you can use all of K2's functionality without it even being installed! Isn't K2 just great? :)

Hi,
I agree that K2 is great, but the "endless" wait for a J1.6 version.
The real problem here is not the wait, but the again and again promises that it will be out in............. I must say I really love the other JW extensions SIG Pro, AllVideos etc. but also with these it is the same, will be out in..........
Why not give a more definite date on releases. A lot of developers are struggling to get their components working on J1.6 but JW is by far the worst about giving information on their development progress.
Now I see that it will be out before Joomla Day Greece, I keep my fingers crossed here, but aren't reassured about this.

It is a real epic fail. Maybe they had in mind the following Joomla day in Greece, right before june 2012?
P.S. it seems that the Duke Nukem Forever will be released first, and only then we'll see k2 for Joomla 1.6

You are right, you should ask for a refund...
(interesting how the people complaining the most are the ones that have the least amount of posts helping others...)

Very funny. I am a developer, and listening to the promises of "early May" did the project design for the K2 blog system. And now I have to wait for the unknown, or alter part of the design to other components.
Main thing in this story - promise when you can do it in time.

Most of us here are developers. Now stop the whining.
