I just wanted to let sublime text users that depend on the phpfmt plugin that the author changed business model and deleted the git repository about 30 minutes ago.<p>The repo WAS available at https://github.com/ccirello/sublime-phpfmt and was forked to https://github.com/nanch/sublime-phpfmt/ just before the author ccirello nuked his repository to prevent people from reverting to an older version of the plugin.<p>Directions on how to revert to an older version of the plugin are at https://github.com/nanch/sublime-phpfmt
I left this message as an issue:<p>---<p>I may be mistaken, but it seems like you switched this from a "free" business to a "paid" business without letting people know what's going on.<p>I understand that you want to get paid and I'd be happy to purchase a license from you for fmt.phar, but you don't have any public pricing available and you've surprised me with this "upgrade".<p>Could you let us know what you're planning, why you're planning it, and provide some insight into what your thinking is?<p>As of now I'm forking and reverting to a previous version. I hope you can provide some guidance because I'd like to support you and I enjoy using phpfmt.<p>Thank you.<p>---<p>He responded:<p>> Be sure to buy a license when you do it.<p>and locked and closed the issue.<p>reference: <a href="http://imgur.com/wpZ5Apv" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/wpZ5Apv</a>
For anybody that's looking for more discussion on this topic:<p>This is a reddit post with more information:<p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4nxlwi/where_did_phpfmt_go/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4nxlwi/where_did_phpfm...</a><p>and this is the pull request to update the packagecontrol.io reference to the new sublime phpfmt plugin:<p><a href="https://github.com/wbond/package_control_channel/pull/5593" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/wbond/package_control_channel/pull/5593</a>
Carlos got back to me via email and transferred ownership to me. I guess he didn't want to work on it anymore.<p>"I, hereby, transfer to you the copyright of the sublime-phpfmt and its derivatives.<p>Therefore, sublime-phpfmt and its derivatives copyright are yours, Nanch."<p>I'll see what needs to happen to be sure the sublime text plugin stays in working order so that people can continue using it.<p>What a strange day.
