Version 6 of the PHProjekt project management software released

PHProjekt Logo After two years of development, the developer team at Würzburg, Germany based vendor Mayflower responsible for the PHProjekt project management software has released a completely rebuilt version 6 of PHProjekt under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). The latter allows developers to combine their own modules with PHProjekt and release them under a different licence.

Object-oriented PHP based on the Zend Framework and the Dojo JavaScript library, as well as the MVC (Model View Controller) architecture and a test-driven development model, were used to write the new version. MVC's ActiveRecord interface allows for the rapid prototyping of new modules.

From a user's point of view, version 6 has a stronger project management focus and offers a RIA (Rich Internet Application) user interface as well as AJAX-enabled features such as data recognition and live searching. For developers, the new version is designed to simplify adding custom modules to the architecture. The new version is available on the project's download page.
