History
In October 2009, CakePHP project manager Garrett Woodworth and developer Nate Abele resigned from the project to focus on Lithium,[4][5] a framework code base originally being developed at the CakePHP project as "Cake3".[6]
In 2012 the project gained official sponsorship from Engine Yard.[7]
The Radify also invests heavily in the framework as its primary foundation for development.
