Optaros has announced the launch of a new user interface framework for Alfresco. DoCASU 1.0 is an open source initiative, bringing AJAX and Rich Internet Application features to the Alfresco Enterprise CMS platform UI. Docasu "is not intended to replace the already existing Alfresco web user interface," but rather is aimed at those who require a simpler and more user-friendly, yet highly configurable interface solution.

Last week, at the Enterprise 2.0 conference in Boston, I moderated a panel on Open Source Platforms. The panelists were:

• Bob Bickel, from Ringside Networks
• John Newton, from Alfresco
• Jeff Whatcott, from Acquia

Although the conference doesn’t audio tape or videotape the breakout sessions in the smaller rooms - only the keynote - they were nice enough to allow us to record the panel’s audio.
