Please let me know the best extension to integrate moodle with joomla.
Here is a full list of available Joomla-Moodle integration. The pros and cons of each solution is also described in the same page:

About 9 months ago I integrated Joomla & Moodle and at that time there was only one such plugin, called Joomdle:

It's free and support is very good. I recommend it.

I am pretty much good with MVC 3 and now have been searching to integrate my application using Umbraco CMS and I have Installed it in my solution but do not know how to integrate this and how to Use it.
Umbraco has a rich and helpful community.
You can refer to the following links for help:
https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Templating/Mvc/
https://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2012/10/30/getting-started-with-mvc-in-umbraco-410/
The first link refers to Umbraco community on which you can ask questions and get perhaps a quicker response.
I am trying create a joomla component. In that component I need to store some phone numbers and those numbers should be provided when an extension asks for them. How can I achieve this? Please direct me if there is comprehensive tutorials.
Thanks in advance...
A similar question exists in the Joomla Stack Exchange site here, with links, suggestions and references to a bunch of resources around Joomla Development.
Furthermore in JSE you can find great assistance for specific questions during your development attempt.
The Joomla! support site has some links to component development:
http://docs.joomla.org/Portal:Component_Development
I see that you tagged 2.5, but version 3 is the new stable version. There is an example V3 component here:

When I started, I looked at an existing extension which was similar to what I wanted and went from there.
How can I start developing a component for the Joomla 1.5 framework? Does anyone know of a good tutorial, or has a good reference?
I have read the tutorial on the wiki and I didn't understand it well, so if you could point me to another one, that would be great.
I know that ideally I should work with Joomla 2.5 or 3.0 but I am being asked to develop this for an existing website, I can't decide which version to work on.
I think the official tutorials in Joomla! Documentation really do cut it. Give it a try - http://docs.joomla.org/Component_Development
I can't decide which version to work on
I personally would use Joomla 2.5 as it's the long term lease of the Joomla series and has much more documentation and support. Joomla 3.0 is the short term release, therefore is a beta version of 3.5 so to speak.
Seeing as you are using Joomla 1.5 at the moment, you could always upgrade to Joomla 2.5 using JUpgrade which is a free extension. Note that this won't upgrade 3rd party extensions, so you will need to install the Joomla 2.5 compatible versions for each one (providing there is one).
To get you started on a Joomla 2.5 component, have a look at the Joomla 2.5 MVC Documentation. This also provides zip files of a HelloWorld component for you to download at various stages.
You might also be interested in a Component Generator.
Hope this helps.
I have created a basic CMS using CodeIgniter 2.0.3, and now I want to create an installation so it can work on other computers. I have hard time finding any advice on the net. What is the best practice in this case?
If you are looking for an example, download and review ionize cms. It has a good installer and is released under the Open Source MIT license.
The Ionize CMS installer is a good start, but remember it is written only to install Ionize, not for other purposes.
Anyway, it can help you to discover how to load CI classes and use them "outside" of CI.
How can I add user comment system in joomla 1.6 articles? Its for a custom blog system. there is a article category named "Blog" in the site. I want, when user read articles of this category, they can comment on it. there are some extensions for joomla 1.5. but cannot find any good one for 1.6. i also found "discussit" for discussion. but don't like it much to use 3rd party. it would better to use a pure commenting system for a article category. you can also suggest a free blog extension for joomla 1.6. thanks in advance.
Well, it's not free but you could integrate Facebook commenting with this extension -
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/social-web/facebook-integration/7215#rev-92243
If FB is prevalent in your area this could be a very good solution since it has the added advantage of other FB users seeing your comments.
Otherwise, did you look st JA Comment. It's probably your best bet as a pure commenting system.

At this point, your only other choice will be to upgrade to one of the CCK systems that has commenting built in.
Yootheme (Professional Joomla Club) has also a solution as part of their Joomla Appication Framwork Zoo (http://www.yootheme.com/zoo/index.php).
Take a look here http://www.yootheme.com/zoo/app-bundle/blog/frontpage.
Rockettheme (The other big one in the market) has a comment system :
