Mifos Platform - (aka Mifos X)

Introduction

From July 2011 to September 2011, some ad-hoc work was done around re-implementing aspects of loan portfolio functionality that existed in mifos 2.2. The purpose of this was to see was it possible to develop substantial functionality on a volunteer time-basis.

As a result of this we (Keith Woodlock & John Woodlock) sought funding to take the existing code for the prototype and begin work on laying the foundation for the next evolution of the Mifos platform.
