For the last few months our project lead, Jim, has been struggling with lung cancer. He was undergoing treatment. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough. A few days ago he passed away in his sleep.

Jim was the driving force behind keeping us moving, and was instrumental in rescuing CodeIgniter from EllisLab and driving it forward.

Turns out Jim’s birthday was February 24th. We would like to shoot for that date for a final release of 4.0.

CodeIgniter is a Framework with a small footprint with an Exceptional performance, nearly zero configuration. and Strong Security. The power of CodeIgniter is not only the code but its comunity who is really Great.
