Editor's Notes
- #20 Open Version Web Content Management - Web Site Management integrated with the Template Service, providing site structure management, site navigation and consistent presentation and page components across all pages. Collaboration Tools - Adding basic integration with various collaboration tools and the ability align workflow and content events around calendars and calendar events. Wiki - Build a Wiki on top of the Alfresco repository emulating the MediaWiki (Wikipedia) mark-up language Image Management - Add simple image management providing the capture of images using a Windows/TWAIN interface, OCR and full-text search of the content. Because of the tools being used, this application will be GPL and managed as a separate project. Scripting - Provide mechanism to allow extensions to be created in scripting languages such as PHP, Perl, Groovy and JavaScript. This provides a callback to the script and the ability for the script to call Alfresco. Extended Portlet Architecture - Simplify the ability to take Alfresco's UI components and JSF parts and reuse them in JSF and JSP pages. Personalization - Add the ability to change the look and feel of Alfresco with different layouts and skins and to allow the user to change which components are visible in different spaces. Extended Workflow Capabilities - Continue to enhance the core workflow capabilities for more case management Extended Rules - Add more rules to test content conditions and more actions to perform on content Content Stores - More types of content stores support greater clustering capability, replication, scalability and storage in the database for certain types of content.
- #21 Enterprise Version All of the above plus Extended Federated Search - Basic federated search of Alfresco system plus the ability to search non-Alfresco repositories. BPEL Integration - Using the Alfresco Web Services interface, integrate the Alfresco repository with an open source BPEL engine along with workflow templates for common business processes. Currently investigating JBoss jBPM, Apache Agila, ActiveBPEL and FiveSight PXE engines. Master-Master Replication – The ability to provide bi-directional replication of metadata and content between two or more machines. This allows better remote access to content and provide more scalable access to the repository through load balancing. Retrieved from " http:// www.alfresco.org/mediawiki/index.php/Roadmap "
