We have exciting news for the APLAWS+ user group: APLAWS+ version 2.1 is on the horizon!

After a lot of hard work and collaboration by Bremen University and Camden Council we are ready to publish a first beta version of APLAWS+ version 2.1. We are now starting an intensive QA test phase in Camden aiming to migrate our production site to the new version.

The new version has a lot of improvements and new features. Details are listet at https://sourceforge.net/p/aplaws/discussion/401109/thread/e6ada441/

Until recently the current release APLAWS+ 1.0.4 was not available on here on sourceforge, but on an intermediate server, due to an ongoing restructure of the project's organization. We now transferred the program files and the corresponding documentation back to sourceforge. Enjoy!

APLAWS+ 1.0.4 was released on Oct 7, 2006. It can temporarily be downloaded from http://schaedel-hirn.de/myupdates/.

The APLAWS+ subversion repository has moved. See https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/aplaws/ for read-only and read-write access.

APLAWS user group took place near the Camden town hall. Users representing various UK local authorities and the APLAWS suppliers have attended this useful session, to exchange ideas and experiences of using APLAWS. Presentations from the meeting will be made avaiable soon.

Following considerable work on the code for the London Borough of Camden's implementation of APLAWS+, many bug fixes and improvements made by Red Hat have now been made available into a new release of the APLAWS+ code. This release also includes bug fixes and enhancements from other suppliers and went through a quality assurance process with Camden developers and GoMeta. This work serves as the first release in terms of the development path of APLAWS+ for the next year. APLAWS is an Open Source Content Management System. The system has been designed to help UK authorities deliver services online as part of the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister's Local Government Online programme.
