+
+This is the monthly report for May, June and July 2024.
+
+# Introduction
+
+This is some news regarding the development of FusionInventory (agent and server).
+
+# Crowdfunding
+
+At the end of August, I will launch a crowdfunding.
+

+
+The FusionInventory project, as well as the other related ones like FusionSuite, are not going fast enough. Indeed, I am developing in my free time and it is not progressing as fast as I would like.
+
+In order to be able to finalize **FusionInventory 3.0** and **FusionSuite 1.0** as soon as possible, I would like to be full-time on these projects, for 1 full year.
+
+This will allow:
+
+* before the release:
+  * finish the development
+  * write the documentation
+* manage the communication
+* release the releases
+* after the releases:
+  * do the community support
+  * define the roadmap
+  * manage the corrective versions (there will inevitably be some bugs hanging around)
+
+There will be virtual counterparts, and other physical ones, for people, and even for companies who would participate.
+
+You understood, I need you for this final stretch.
+
+**More information in a dedicated news at the end of August for the launch**
+
+# Agent FusionInventory
+
+The agent rewritten in RUST begin to works.
+
+Of course, not yet all implemented, but some parts:
+
+* local computer inventory (coded at 60%)
+* new data structure (implemented at 80%)
+* new file system architecture
+* webserver (done at 50%), we can see state of each module, can force a module to run, design not yet done
+* new config file
+

+
+
+The first part of code has been pushed on the [repository](https://github.com/fusioninventory/fusioninventory-agent-rust).
+
+# Servers FusionInventory
+
+This is some news about the servers.
+
+## FusionSuite
+
+FusionSuite project continue it's development, not yet ready.
+
+I'm waiting more code of agent to be written to continue the FusionInventory server code on FusionSuite.
+
+## GSIT
+
+The *versoin 9.6* is currectly in active development and too many parts is been rewritten.
+
+The plugin Fusioninventory will be rewritten in september for release end of September or October, in fact in same time than release of GSIT 9.6.
+
+There is a possibility of integrating FusionInventory into core of GSIT, not yet decided. I think we will have a compatibility part to manage agents 2.x and 3.x.
+
+
+## GLPI
+
+It's a reminder, because many users ask me on [the discord server](https://discord.gg/KdR6dyzNUU), **the plugin for GLPI is discontinued**, [check this news](https://fusioninventory.org/news/2024/03/27/plugin-fusioninventory-gsit-glpi-support-status.html).
