			Bika Lab Systems' involvement with the SENAITE project is unclear, as the SENAITE Foundation doesn't list Bika Labs as a contributor. It appears development of Bika LIMS may have stopped with the SENAITE project<ref name="SmitBika18" />, as the last Bika LIMS release on GitHub was 3.2.1rc2 on September 15, 2017. However, it appears that Bika LIMS' underlying code has been replaced with that of SENAITE.
