The Joomla Production Department coordinates work on the code of the Joomla project’s software products.
Responsibilities
Its scope includes CMS development and maintenance, releases, testing, architecture, security and documentation. Specialist Joomla community teams carry out that work. The department coordinates these areas rather than developing every third-party product.
Why site owners encounter the name
Its work appears in Joomla releases, bug fixes and official technical documentation. Team structures and responsible individuals can change, so current organisational details should be checked in the official Volunteers Portal.
The Production Department belongs to Joomla project governance and software development. Support for a third-party extension remains the responsibility of that extension’s developer.
