OXID goes Open Source
30. Oktober 2008 von urban |
Today we got a new open source shop-system: OXID eShop CE.
The OXID eSales AG launched their new Releases 4.0 for Professional and Enterprise Edition - and beside that - a brandnew "Community Edition" which is actually exact the same as the Professional Edition - but: it's completely open source - and: it's for free.
As I know a new community platform with several docs and a new forum is planed as well. Unfortunately today there's only a sort of prototype of this new platform online ...
This new open source edition now makes it possible for everyone to use, change and extend the software which is released unter GPL V3.
I think this was a brave decision and I am very curious about the consequences during the next months. Probably we should see some rapid development of all sorts of extensions and modifications. Exciting times for OXID ...
