Good day, About four years we started on 1.x. phpWebSite has come pretty far. Since then, I think the software has evolved far beyond the expectations we had from 0.8.x to 0.10.x. That said, in the evolutionary chain, I don't think we are walking upright with clothes quite yet. This summer, we will be taking a little break from updating. Barring some unknown circumstance, there won't be a 1.7.0. Instead we will be working on the 2.x series. Some of the basic changes will be to update the code to current PEAR libraries, rework some of the earlier written modules, make it easier to create and update modules, and overall improve the interface. Backward compatibility with current modules should remain the same. We MAY change the name of the project as well since the "php" portion of the name seems to confuse people. Sourceforge is dropping some of its services. We will be dropping their bug and feature requests and using a Trac on our own servers. We will also try using our own BB for some interaction. More likely, we will lead people to phpwsforums.com since they already have wealth of information. Thanks to everyone still involved with the project. As I get further down the path, I hope to have a blog running or maybe a channel in phpwsforums.com to discuss 2.x. I look forward to your input.
