[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger CRM 5 Long Time Support :: coreBOS

[Joe Bordes]

Hello,

This post is to announce the creation of the coreBOS project. coreBOS 
starts from the rich inheritance of vtiger CRM 5.4. with intention to 
give support to the big user and developer base for 5.x.

During the birth of this project the first name that was given to it was 
vt5LTS, borrowing the name from Ubuntu, that stands for vtiger CRM 5 
Long Time Support, but we didn't want to conflict with vtiger name 
branding nor create conflict in any way in the developer and user 
community. Also we understand that we will quickly drift away from 
vtiger CRM line of action and be something else, so we thought that the 
name didn't make justice to all the potential we see in the project and 
where we want to take it. We saw a near future where coreBOS would have 
it's own merits and reasons to stand tall for it's own right so we gave 
it a name and started our adventure.

We aren't creating this project out of disrespect or spite, we do not 
have a bad relation with the vtiger company nor with the community, we 
plan to keep investing time in vtiger CRM 6 and future releases, 
although it will be less than what we have done for the 5.x branch.

In fact I have to admit that I like a lot of things I see in vtiger CRM 
6 and will most probably downgrade some of them, I think vtiger is going 
down the right track with VT6 and with the change in community support 
of the past weeks (incredible!!).

We invite you to join us :-)

Thank you,
Joe
