Core Panel Q&A
summary
Origins traced to 2005 with three founders, migration from SVN that accidentally erased prehistory, and a painful Cake 2→3 upgrade that spurred an imperfect automated upgrade tool. Highlights: Bake code generation, a powerful ORM used in enterprise and scientific projects, package splitting and PSR adoption, docs auto-deploy on merge, and a late shift from PEAR to Composer. Current needs: docs fixes, blog/video evangelism, plugins and drivers (Redis Cluster accepted via PR). Roadmap: minimal breaking changes.
