This is the project map for JoomlaMafia and the Mafia line. One side is finished. The other side is planned, with the windows padded on purpose. We would rather beat a date than chase one, so every window below has room built into it.
Finished
- The domain and the public site are back. joomlamafia.com is live with the Mafia line story, the lead form, and the Stage 1 alpha section.
- The archive is restored. All 128 original articles, published with their original 2008 to 2012 dates, on the proving install.
- Gantry 6 theme g6_jmafia is built and verified on the staging clone at 6.0.0-alpha.1, carrying the g5_jmafia design on the Gantry 6 fork.
- Gantry 6.0.2-rc.1 is published on GitHub with public release notes.
- Nine legacy extensions pass every gate on Joomla 6 at version 2026.11.1, each with its own Web Services API.
- MafiaCRM issues 1 to 6 are closed, fixed in one commit after a 346 check API swarm.
- MafiaCRM staged build 2026.11.6.02 exists, with campaign delivery through the shared MafiaSMTP and the automation engine in the build, verified in isolated tests.
- Mafia Display is fixed and verified: 13 styles, all 26 files pass, MyFonts submission in progress.
- The public roadmap page is live on joomlamafia.com since November 3, 2026. This page is the detailed version.
Planned
- Proving install updated to MafiaCRM 2026.11.6.02. Window: by the end of November 2026. The staged build exists today; the proving install gets it with backups first and counts verified after.
- The four queued MafiaCRM items filed and fixed: error shape and OpenAPI alignment, campaign schedules creatable through the API, fixture SMTP tooling, and per field save on blur into CRM drafts. Window: December 2026.
- Pipeline and funnel workflow surface on top of the automation runner that exists today. This is the GoHighLevel class stretch item. Window: January to February 2027.
- Suite interoperability pass. MafiaCRM, MafiaCart, MafiaSMTP, MafiaForms and MafiaSocial talking to each other through the shared registry, kept in sync by a small scanner that checks every few minutes. Social Desk, toaster pop ups and forms all tie into the CRM. Window: February 2027.
- Legacy Wave 2 ports (the 2013 set, including the Vanilla theme coming forward). Window: February 2027.
- WordPress port of MafiaCRM, supporting WooCommerce, FluentCart and MafiaCart through the same spine. A scaffold exists today. Window: March 2027.
- MafiaCart toward FluentCart parity on Joomla, where MafiaCart is the commerce system. Window: March to April 2027.
- Legacy Wave 3 ports (the 1.5 era rebuilds, dealership component last because its data migration is its own step). Window: April 2027.
- Stage 2 beta, after the alpha window closes. The beta price goes up from alpha. Window: February 2027 or later, set once alpha closes.
The alpha window
Stage 1 alpha sales run Monday November 9, 2026 through January 1, 2027. After January 1 the alpha terms close to new buyers. See the Alpha page for what is in it.
House rules
- Joomla 6+ only for new work.
- Testing before shipping. Everything proves on the proving install first.
- Every extension ships its own Web Services API and joins the shared registry.
- Mafia releases use CalVer: YYYY.M.P.
- Built complete. The important features are in the box.
- Soft licensing. Licenses gate upgrades. Existing installs do not get shut down.
