There is quite some development going on under the hood at the framework
and infrastructure level. This is not directly visible to the users and
so far it has not been released to stable versions.

Currently my focus is

- composer based install rather than pear (currently for dev-master only
but it works for me)
- Shipping a ready-to-run docker container based setup (currently only
docker-compose, kubernetes as time permits or a sponsor pops up.
Currently only based on the dev-master setup mentioned above)
- Introducing more modern standards (namespaces, PSR-4 autoloading for
new code, PSR-11 version of the injector, PSR-12 coding standards as
applicable)
- Improvements to the controller framework
- A more modern approach to the way the UI is delivered (Typescript, React).

Bottom line is while things have been slow for a while, Horde is not
going away.
