Refactor I is in the books and released to the production environment of Crowd Fusion.  Ryan nearly single handedly rebuilt our prototype code into a far more logical OOP framework that will allow for more hands to be working simultaneously.  The refactor took less than 5 weeks, 6 was budgeted, and retains the main principles of MVC with strong leaning on Elements as our fundamental class structure.

True project management has begun and a build out of all the weapons in our arsenal is in full swing.  We are now adding developers to the core coding team.  One of the biggest changes moving from the old code to the current version was the rewriting of the stub, our old initialization routines were disjointed and complex to navigate.  The new system is truely a single instance for web, cms, crons, daemons, and utils.   This requires a small time investment in permissions systems to allow crons and daemons restricted access and additional IP checking, but the gains of not having duplicative launch systems is proving very beneficial.

We are still looking for developers, designers, and web standards gurus.  Send me an email if you are the top 2% of your field or just want more information craig at crowdfusion dot com.
