ControversyEdit

In 2010, Gallery announced the use of some proprietary Adobe tools to build some components of Gallery 3 in Adobe Flash. Several users expressed great concern that proprietary software was being used in an open-source project and that Flash components were being included in an open-source package. A rebuttal to the controversy included a disclosure that Adobe Flash objects had previously been used for file uploading functionality in Gallery only seemed to further ignite the controversy.<ref>Thanks Adobe! Template:Webarchive Retrieved on November 29, 2010.</ref> In 2019 Gallery 3.1.0 was released which replaced the Flash-based uploader with modern open source code.<ref name=":0" />

RevivalEdit

In June 2013 the developers of Gallery 3 released version 3.0.9 code-named "Chartres" and in June 2014 announced that they would suspend further development of Gallery 3.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The GPL license allowed for continued development by others or the creation of a fork of Gallery based on the existing code. In 2019 a group of long-time Gallery 3 users developed and released Gallery 3.1.1 to keep the program viable on servers running PHP 7 and 8 which also included additional technical and feature improvements.<ref name=":0"/> Version 3.1.5 of Gallery 3 was released on November 14, 2021.
