# IMPORTANT: Plugin Still Available on GitHub

 * This plugin has been removed from the directory as WordPress does not allow frameworks.
   Although the plugin was grandfathered in to continuing to operate, the WordPress
   plugin team has made it clear that they really don’t want it listed in the directory
   anymore. As a result, if you are actively using the plugin you will need to pull
   it from GitHub instead: [https://github.com/tombenner/wp-mvc](https://github.com/tombenner/wp-mvc)
 * Documentation is also still available at: [https://wpmvc.org/](https://wpmvc.org/)
 * We welcome your contributions and pull requests!

 * Actually, I found this plugin very amusing and educative. Why not port it somewhere
   else, such as an intermediary framework between WordPress platform and plugin
   development? I think it comes off very helpful in the means of an interface to
   implement the different capabilities offered by wordpress through the `wp-mvc`
   functionality.
 * How I see it, you’ve explored a helpful insight which could still be used for
   code injecting the various components necessary which might be tedious to become
   familiarized with at first in order to boilerplate a plugin and design its structure.
   Once a developer has a clear vision of how they want to design their plugin, 
   it could introduce the necessary patterns and supplementary code in order to 
   make the plugin work. Think about it in terms of .DLL or .so, except as PHP supplementary
   code for WordPress.
 * However, thanks a lot for developing this. And sorry for the very long reply,
   just made an account to post this.

 * This is very useful plugin (framework) with well-organized structure. It save
   big amount of my time. I would like to ask about the future of this framework.
   From my perspective it is not a big issue that it is not available from the WP
   directory. I am going to use it in a bigger private project and would like to
   avoid situation when it becomes abandoned in a year or two. Good job! Thank you
   about this code!

 * I use this extensively with a wide range of clients and on my own projects, so
   I plan to support it at least with bug fixes for the foreseeable future. I will
   be reticent (but not totally closed) to the idea of accepting major new features
   unless they have been extensively tested for backwards compatibility. Like you,
   I don’t want anything to break. 🙂
 * Hope that helps.
