Due to several requests from the community and further internal discussion within the CATS team, we we are toying with the idea of resuming the CATS open source community site as follows:
1) http://www.catsone.org would be the new official home for the CATS Open Source project.
2) The old forums would be restored on this site.
3) The official download links would be made available sans license key requirements or Professional links (a version which is no longer available) and ALL support numbers and email addresses to Cognizo removed. Possibly a cleaned up 0.9.2 release.
4) Cognizo would give SVN read/conditional write access to interested developers looking to contribute to the project.
5) Code contributions would be made solely to the open source project. Updates would not be made from the SaaS hosted version to the open source project or vice versa -- as of today, the two versions are virtually incompatible anyway as the hosted version is far more developed.
We would encourage the open source community to step up and contribute to this project from an official site. We would provide all of the facilities to do so.
Please let us know if this was something the community would like to see. I should note this does not mean we would continue development with open source, any future updates would need to be performed by interested third parties and on the release schedules of those who volunteer to moderate the community effort.
