EllisLab Seeking New Owner for CodeIgniter

I love CodeIgniter, I wish my PHP skills were better than they currently are so I can help take this on. Of all the PHP frameworks I have TRIED to use, CodeIgniter has been the easiest for me to grasp. They documentation is great and easy for me to follow.

Other PHP frameworks just fly over my head and leave me glassy eyed. I hope the right people take this on.

+1 for CodeIgniter. Easy to learn and easy to hack, as it's very transparent about what goes under the hood.

Despite (or because of) its simplicity, I moved on to other frameworks after about 2-3 projects. But nothing beats CodeIgniter for its newbie-friendliness.

Have you tried Laravel out?

I have gone through the documentation but nothing has been as straight forward as CodeIgniter (for my level). Some of the language is hard for me to understand. I am very impatient and like to start hacking right away.

Have you tried CodeIgniter? Is it an easy transition from CodeIgniter to Laravel?

I've tried both. I considered Laravel far superior / simpler. Wasn't even close.
