After a long history of providing key modules for XOOPS and ImpressCMS, Instant-Zero has closed up shop and transferred all ongoing maintenance and development to the ImpressCMS Project's developers.

Hervé Thouzard, the principal developer and founder of Instant Zero, said in a statement

"The ImpressCMS project has my complete blessings in releasing and continuing the development of the Instant Zero community modules. I truly believe that this is the very best solution for the users and the module themselves"

Many sites have at least one of the Instant Zero modules -

• Birthday
• Boox
• Newbexx
• iSearch
• Marquee
• MyDownloads
• Myiframe
• News
• Olédrion (shop)
• Shortcuts
• Userpage
• XoopsCare

XOOPS has also added the modules to their code repository and has announced intentions to maintain the modules' compatibility with their core platform.

It is sad to see the loss of such a talented developer, but it is comforting to know these modules will still be maintained.
