NukeCops - The Official Nuke Cops Business Model

Nuke Cops has in agreement with Francisco Burzi (nukelite) the author of PHP-Nuke to work together in the evolution of the PHP-Nuke CMS. Nuke Cops will now officially continue development of the following modules for the CMS: Forums, Private Messaging, and Journal.

In addition, we shall continue to build on our previous successes in the areas of bug fixes and security patches while working even more closely with Francisco.

PHPNuke.org and NukeCops.com are both moving together as the best of friends in a professional arena on a global scale.

In addition, from a previous article with Francisco's blessings, we will also continue to offer a special bundle of PHP-Nuke. Such additional items include:

-LDAP authentication
-Corporate grade calendar sharing module
-Web Space for Members

Nuke Cops is currently undergoing a wonderful evolution in our staffing and support to the users of PHP-Nuke.

We will be offering new tools to report and track bugs, and projects. We will also be offering a 24/7 live support online.

In addition, we are restructuring our team to resemble a business environment where the following roles have been identified and will need to be filled over time (some are filled):

- project manager
- module developer
- security code patcher
- document specialist
- hosts that offer forum support
- dedicated news admin
- dedicated downloads admin
- management
- super user admin
- server admin
- community outreach specialist
- abuse specialist

We'll also be assembling special teams that cover:

- new ideas
- AUP enforcement
- greivance committee

Others include decisions on who gets to become an authentic Elite Nuker, or even a staff member.

Elite Nukers at Nuke Cops are considered "Staff", without actual site responsibilities outside of being:

- nuke experts
- people who want to help others on site

Typically we seek staff from this elite group of members.

And the number one thing that has made us grow and see nearly 2 million page hits in under 6 months (and 2000 plus registered users in the same time) is:

- respect for each other

Yes, even though we are the staff and elite nukers, we pride ourselves in developing and helping the community with respect and sincerity.

And we will continue this to all new levels.

Nuke Cops believes that PHP-Nuke is the best solution out there for content management. One of the best reasons why, romantically speaking, is this product has drawn a cult like following. And we pride ourselves in being its greatest fans.

Nuke Cops staff is team focused. Even though roles are well defined, we believe in cross-functional team work.

Current most senior in management and owner is Zhen-Xjell, and then Chatserv. Today, Raven has been promoted to Site Admin (third most senior) from Site Moderator. In the days to come, more promotions will be announced at Nuke Cops.

To succeed in life, sometimes its best to take baby steps with patience and clear mind.

We value our friendship with Francisco and stand behind him as a human being. Thanks Francisco for being our friend and for creating such a valuable system.

And for the record, we do support versions 6.6 and 6.7.
