Open Source is a great way to have your software distributed globaly all over the world and the common language for that is english.

But once you have made the first contact, a localized platform is really needed.

With our main market being in Europe, we have the luck to have some customers that ask us to translate the platform in many languages.

The last translation we made is German

Translating eXo Platform is really a simple task as all the labels are stored in a set of properties files. Feel free to contact us if you want to contribute a language

This year i had the chance to be in vietnam for the annual holidays of the company. We have been to HoiAn, Hue and Danang.

Oh I found someone who try to compete with Benjamin on the use of the mobile devices, Trong, the team leader of the portal always sticks to his iPhone.

Portal 2.1.1, ECM 2.0.1 and CS 1.0.1 have just been released.

Those three versions are only downloadable by companies that have purchased the subscription. Indeed, service packs are part of an add service that is only availble to eXo customers.

Portal 2.1.1, ECM 2.0.1 and CS 1.0.1 include bug fixes that of course will also be available in Portal 2.2, ECM 2.1 and CS 1.1 for the entire community later on.

Dear customers, please register in the eXo extranet to get those binaries that fix several bugs and add some features like an UI for ECM audit/monitoring

We’ve just uploaded the official build for eXo CS 1.0 on ow2 forge.

This one replaces the previous community build as it was upgraded to latest CS 1.0, portal 2.1 and portlet container 2.0 final.

CS 1.1 is on track and should be there by september. You can follow our progress on JIRA.
