This has been a long time coming, but today we have formalized the intentiont o abandon the Phergie project. Thanks to all the contributors, maintainers, commenters, bug reporters, and everyone else who contributed to the incredible user base of Phergie.

If you're interested the repositories can be forked under a new Composer namespace/GitHub organization.

Hello everyone! Some updates from the Phergie team:

Minimum PHP Versions

We are in the process of removing all support for any PHP version older than 5.5. We will no longer be testing any older versions. We hope this helps push users forward to newer versions of PHP. With the imminent release of PHP 7 we have removed the allowed failures for 7 on Travis.

Development Package!

We have created a development package phergie/phergie-irc-bot-react-development to hold all of our commonly used development dependencies and have begun updating packages to use this. Instead of requiring multiple dependencies for development you can require this one package instead.

"We're all fine here"

It has been a while since there has been an update here. If you haven't checked in with us in a while there is some news we would like to share.

Late August of 2015 Matthew Turland, the original author and project lead, reached out to test the waters on the idea of passing the leadership torch of the Phergie project. Matthew Trask And Joe Ferguson took co-leadership of the project shortly after while Matthew Turland has stayed on in an advisory role.

What does this mean? nothing. We plan on continuing reviewing pull requests, bug reports, and working on making Phergie awesome. If you have any questions please feel free to drop by #phergie on the Freenode channel.

One thing all three of us would like to see is to make Phergie more inviting to contributors. We all heavily support PHPMentoring.org and would like Phergie to be an easy project for new contributors and even first time open source contributors to join and learn.

We have moved our wiki documentation to this website to encourage pull request to help make the documentation better. We have also moved from our WordPress site to using Sculpin to make it easier for possible contributors to help build this site.
