Alfresco Content Management System Adds More Social Features
Additional new features in the CMS include distributed content replication, content activity streams, enhanced search and folder-based actions for basic workflow. The Alfresco press release mentioned social networking in relation to enterprise apps, noting that "Social computing is becoming a more and more prominent part of enterprise apps like Jive and SharePoint, and these critical programs need a platform on which to build social apps."
This release provides a new DocLib "portlet" which exposes document libraries to standards-based portals, and uses CMIS to allow integration with Drupal and Lotus Quickr.
