Yes, it is updated.  However note that to get every feature working rightly 
you should install it on a Debian 'etch' GNU/Linux system. It is required due 
to some specific PHP libraries.

Debian 'etch' is the distribution used at production (gnuherds.org).


If you do not use Debian 'etch' yourself, you could install it on a virtual 
machine.  Nicodemo configured a QEMU virtual machine to be used as 
development environment, but it is outdated now due to it was slow to work on 
and it raised some issues due to the X graphic environment was not installed.


Anyway if you want to take a quick look to the working webapp, you can 
download that Nicodemo's QEMU virtual machine at:
