LibLime Announces LibLime Enterprise Koha

From the Galecia blog archive, 2003–2024. Posts are kept as they were published, so some details and links are out of date.

This announcement from Liblime officially established a forked version of Koha (or possibly two versions: see their new "budget-friendly ILS for Small Libraries").  This is a sad day for the larger Koha development community. Rather than working together to improve Koha, Liblime will be developing their own version.  Granted, the Liblime version will also be released under an Open Source license but it won't necessarily work nicely with the 'other Koha.'   That means less developers available to each product.  And we already have too few developers.  Sigh.
