New York, NY and Basel, Switzerland (PRWEB) November 16, 2007 -- Magnolia International Ltd., creator of the open-source Enterprise Content Management System Magnolia, today announced the transition of its Magnolia Community Edition to GPLv3.
GPLv3 is the latest version of the world's most popular open-source license, which has been released in June this year by the Free Software Foundation. Magnolia is the first JSR-170-based Content Management System released under the GNU Public License Version 3 (GPLv3), and one of the first mainstream applications to embrace the new license.
Releasing the Magnolia Community Edition under the OSI-approved GPLv3 provides the Magnolia community with a clear and modern license that grants the essential freedoms of open-source software to its users and protects their investment into the code base.
Magnolia provides its software in two editions:
- the Magnolia Community Edition is licensed under the GPLv3 and available as a free download from www.magnolia.info
- the Magnolia Enterprise Edition is a commercial open-source product with additional Enterprise functionality and support. It is licensed under the Magnolia Network Agreement, which provides the guarantees and protection enterprises expect.
