Today I'll announce a new Joomla! extension named RDBS Comment. It is not very difficult to guess right what the extension should do. Maybe you ask yourself why an other commenting extension for Joomla! There are some good reasons for developing a new commenting system:
- Most of the commenting extensions are work only, if you have javascript enabled. That's a real problem, if you create an accessible website.
- Spam protection works with captcha and this is on an accessible also a problem.
- I've started programming a commenting system two years ago and I hate not finished projects.
