I'm glad CI has a new home. For many in the PHP community is was their first MVC framework.

Although I wish BCIT all the best I'd wish it would have been picked up by WordPress instead. WordPress is great but it's really showing its age and it could do with a major overhaul. If WordPress would have adopted CI, bring it up to scratch with modern PHP development (Composer, PSR, component oriented, etc.) and build the next generation of WordPress (5.0?) on top of that, I think would have been beneficial to the greater community.

Edit: However, that might conflict with whatever Ellis labs is doing these days..
