Nick Jones


Nick Jones, the founder and lead developer of PHP-Fusion passed away on January 4th, 2011. All of us here as well as those who knew and worked with him in the wider open source community are deeply saddened by his loss. He was a truly genuine talent and great teacher. Many people who are now developers in their own right owe their skills to Nick's attitude to sharing everything he did.

Nick Jones have with his way to make complexed codes easy to understand have given so many people something meaningful to do by following his example.
He did not only make his CMS easy to understand for people who are interested in coding and modifications, he also made it intressting to use, as it is per default for thousands of people due to it´s elegant design and easy to use interface was ready to use right out of the box.
I regret that when we after six years of working together did not start to get closer on a personal level until the last year, this saddens me deeply since Nick are an awesome person to know as well as a great coder.
I feel so priviliged to have had this contact with him although I wish I had established it earlier.
Nick made me feel very proud when he told me that he thought my latest work was fabulous, this is a work based on his work and it is a direct heritage from what he have done.

I will do my best to continue and to honour Nick and his work in that way.

How much Nick´s work have enriched my life is beyond words, it is undescribable what positive impact it have had on my life and also for people around me!


Thank you kindly Nick Jones and family.

Nick Jones are the one who created PHP-Fusion – a CMS so simple that it made me understand the basics of programming.
I have since then learned 5 new programming languages and are going to be a "professional" programmer.

I would not have gone further than HTML if it wasn't for PHP-Fusion and Nick Jones.

May he rest in peace.

I'm an atheist, but Nick made me believe. He made me believe that you can achieve great things with just a simple line of code. He inspired me to start learning PHP and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't be as good as I was now. I'm very thankful for that.

For Nick's family and friends, especially his mother Sue: my deepest condolences and may he rest in peace.

He terrible loss of a good friend & developer.

Nick Jones. Name associated with great and unique project called PHP-Fusion. The CMS report, turnover on the web scene and is used worldwide. I hope that in what we left here the other will continue. For many web coders is unmistakable idol Nick, in what proved and I am among them. Thank you Nick.

PHP-Fusion is still in our hearts and you too.

Rest in peace.

I know I'm not as often here as I should, so I only read the news today.

Talent aside, he had the modesty of the great, He never hesitated to help a non-coder like me whenever he could.

I'm sad I'll never get to know him in person. I hope the team will keep his work top notch.

A thought, too, for his grieving family.

I didn't know Nick. When we first started using PHP Fusion for our community-based social care project, we did so partly because of its usability and community orientation. This fits with the ethos of a lot of 'disability' groups - we work together for the common good, each to her or his ability. It doesn't surprise me to find out that Nick was one of us, in both senses.
