Alfresco 2.0 Released with WCM and OpenSearch under GPL

Alfresco is pleased to announce the availability of the Community Version 2.0 of its Open Source Enterprise Content Management System and JSR-170-based repository. This version is now available under the GPL license with a FLOSS exception which allows any open source software using an OSI-approved license to embed the Alfresco repository or applications without change of license or attribution.

Version 2.0 has combined the core Alfresco repository with the new web content management system and records management system. The web content management system was designed and implemented by the original engineers from Interwoven who joined Alfresco at the beginning of 2006. The WCM system provides:

- Simple import of existing web sites
- Simple Xforms-based entry of XML data based upon the open source Chiba project with AJAX extensions
- Templating of XML and HTML based upon XSLT and Freemarker
- Virtual sandboxes for staging of web sites without copying files
- Timeline snapshot of web sites with zero effort
- Standard web production workflows extending the JBoss jBPM engine with group and queue support
