There is also at least one person who is publicly forking.

Thanks, I will look into this. Seems gxgpet is still working on CI3 even as of today. But I don't know when the changes will be released. Does he frequent these forums?

No.

But yes, he is working on CI3, and is the last maintainer of CI3.

Great news! I am willing to upgrade my old projects, but I am not willing to migrate them to CI4.

There seems to be some incompatibilities in pocketarc/codeigniter.

Backward compatibility between BCIT/CI 3.1.13 and Pocketarc/CI 3.2.0 · Issue #3 · pocketarc/codeigniter

Silly question and sorry for my lack of understanding. Isn't it possible to fork the 3.1-stable branch and apply the patches related to PHP 8.2? Rather than fork the develop branch?


RE: ETA on CI3 PHP8.2 support? - kenjis - 02-13-2024

It is not a silly question. Of course it is possible.
But all Pull Requests are (were) made against develop branch.

The 3.1-stable branch is already 1090 commits behind develop.
https://github.com/bcit-ci/CodeIgniter/tree/3.1-stable
There are already many differences between 3.1-stable and develop.

So, applying PRs created for develop to 3.1-stable may cause many conflicts.
These conflicts need to be resolved.

There is one other alternative to keep using CI3. You can choose to pay for Zend PHP and get official support for an older PHP version,
