I assume that by "not" you mean "now" :)
Whoops! Yes, you're right.
It was my understanding that LibLime was simply a company providing commercial support for the open source Koha product. Am I now correct in believing that it (also?) produces a separate, closed-source product called "LibLime Academic Koha"?
LibLime does not support any version of Koha which is developed by the Koha open source community. They support one version, LibLime Koha 4-something, which is ostensibly open source because they sometimes push to a github repo, but which is developed exclusively by LibLime in isolation.
They also sell "LibLime Academic Koha," which is 100% closed-source, despite being based on GPL'ed code. Both versions diverged from Koha around version 3.2. No one from LibLime contributes back to the open source version of Koha anymore.
OK, thanks for clearing that up! -- Mark Johnson Development Manager OSS Watch http://oss-watch.ac.uk
