Today, the Software Freedom Conservancy welcomes Kohana as its newest member. Kohana joins twenty other Conservancy members, who receive the benefit of aggregated non-profit status available to all Conservancy member projects.
Kohana is an elegant HMVC PHP5 framework that provides a rich set of components for building web applications. It requires very little configuration, fully supports UTF-8 and I18N, and provides many of the tools that a developer needs within a highly flexible system. The integrated class auto-loading, cascading filesystem, highly consistent API, and easy integration with vendor libraries make it viable for any project, large or small.
