Information of devellopement

Hello,

I'm opening this discussion because it might be of interest to others.
I'm currently a project manager in a company.
My Human Resources Director is asking me to use a product to improve the management of internship requests and CV.
After several searches, the Open CAT software meets many of the requirements requested by my IT department.
However, I need to confirm a few points:

Is the software open source?

Is it still supported?

What's the status of development for PHP 8.2 or higher?

Can we use your code if we want to modify it internally?

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Hi James,

yes, feel free to use / abuse / customise the code as you see fit. Currently working on the PHP8.2 branch of the codebase more than any other features at the moment, it is solid in my testing, but still working out the backup/restore functionality, as it's had to be re-written. If you're testing, I'd use the PHP8.2 branch at the moment - as once that finalises, it'll be the new release, and anything less than PHP 8.2 will not be developed further.

Hi there,

the PHP8.2 branch is up and running, functional but not yet merged to mainline. Will finalise it and then start closing open issues in the next few weeks.

Thanks for sharing the progress - is there any specific ETA for merging this branch into mainline?

It's not imminent right now, am unfortunately diverted into supporting some customisations. You can still check out the branch as-is, it's mostly BAU usage complete. searchd for resume parsing will not work without some furhter work though
