Mahara has moved to subscription model #1922

Closed JedMeister closed 1 month ago

Whilst Mahara remains GPL licensed software, they have moved to a subscription model for code access. I have reached out to them to ask if we might have access to continue to release our appliance. Although my suspicion is that they will decline my request.

I was planning to do a final release with the existing PR: https://github.com/turnkeylinux-apps/mahara/pull/17 - however I noticed that there are a number of security related issues:

So if they don't give us access to keep building the appliance, then I think it best to EOL the Mahara appliance.

Deprecating Mahara due to this issue - unless something changes...
