@Joomla Newbie: Ah, so it shows that English is not my native language and that spelling checkers cannot improve my skills… you however can!

I have changed the line in question, so if you have any other remarks, please post them since I am still learning. Thank you for your comment.

Hey great article. I cringed at this sentence with four spelling mistakes in it though, it’s hard to take you seriously as a subject matter expert with that happening.

“So for many there livelihood and business is at steak here and now they have to change there business model to sell support or build membership sites, which is completely different then what they are used to.”

Stake, not steak, their, not there [twice] and than, not then.

I agree with Amy, very good post! You also summed up clearly what a 3PD can do: change the business model, invest in SEO en SEM, etc.

I am really looking forward what different 3PD’s are going to do. What will the AcaJoom, JReviews, Azrul etc teams do? Thats really an interesting question.

Very nice, thoughtful, unemotional, fact-based reflection. Thanks!

One minor correction – Commercial GPL extensions will still be allowed on JED
