Nuxeo Releases Open Source ECM Platform Nuxeo EP 5.0.0.GA

Nuxeo has released the first stable version of Nuxeo EP 5.0, the open source ECM platform. Nuxeo ECM solutions are built on the experience accumulated for 5 years by Nuxeo and community members building mission-critical ECM applications (web content management, document management, records management, collaboration, intranet portals and workflow) for major customers, using previously Zope technologies, and now Java EE 5, JBoss Seam and OSGi.

Nuxeo EP has been designed to be customisable, so as to make it easier both for contributors to participate in the project, and for system integrators to build customers applications.

Nuxeo EP is open source software, under a business-friendly license (EPL and/or LGPL), developped in the open and supported by Nuxeo SAS and third party system integrators and ISVs.

According to Nuxeo, feature highlights for this release include:

• Full document lifecycle, including versionning, check-in /check-out, and such
• Access rights management
• Workflow, including document approval
• Relations between documents
• Audit trails
• Drag'n'drop document management inside the web browser
• User-convenient desktop and office suite integration using plugins for IE, Firefox and MSOffice
