Follow on Google News | Squiz Announce the Release of all SSV Modules as GPL, a New User Interface and a new Manuals SiteThis week’s release of version 3.28 of the Open Source Content Management System, MySource Matrix, is the first to include all of the SSV modules as GPL. Squiz have also revealed a new user interface and new MySource Matrix Manuals website.
By: Squiz UK Ltd. We are happy to announce: • That we have released all of our SSV modules as GPL • A terrific new Easy Edit Interface is now available for MySource Matrix (also GPL) • The launch of a new manuals site available at http://manuals.matrix.squiz.net • The upgrade process for MySource Matrix has just got a whole lot easier Everything is GPL (No More SSV) Squiz has made yet another huge donation to the MySource community by releasing all of its SSV modules as GPL in MySource Matrix version 3.28. This announcement means Squiz’s many integration and content import tools such as the TRIM and SharePoint Bridges, our Data Sources and the Google Maps integration are now all 100% free and GPL. The Squiz built MySource Matrix search is also free and GPL. Funnelback search is not GPL, but is free for all Squiz SLA holders. All clients are still able to enjoy all the warranty, commercial reassurances and other benefits offered by a Squiz Service Level Agreement with the now 100% GPL MySource Matrix. New Easy Edit Suite for MySource Matrix Squiz has built a terrific new generic simple edit interface for MySource Matrix that looks just like MySource Mini. We have called this tool the Easy Edit Suite (or EES) because it brings a whole range of simple editing functionality to content authors. Anyone who has seen the MySource Mini editing interfaces will appreciate what a boon this will be for usability. The Easy Edit Suite is GPL and can easily be added to existing MySource Matrix installations (you will require a recent version of MySource Matrix). The Suite has even been designed to support editing complex content through the addition of “workspaces” For more information visit: http://manuals.matrix.squiz.net/ New MySource Matrix Manuals Website At long last we have built an HTML version of all our manuals rather than distributing them as PDFs. The new site http://manuals.matrix.squiz.net/ If you have an iPhone, visit the site using the inbuilt Safari browser and then bookmark the site and chose “Add to Home Screen” for a nifty way to access MySource Matrix’s manuals in the future. Upgrade Improvements for MySource Matrix Squiz Labs have developed a system for automating much of the upgrade process for MySource Matrix. We can’t fully automate the upgrade process (as we have for the MySource Mini) because we support MySource Matrix in a very a wide range of platforms, and configurations often with customised components. Even so, this new upgrade system, available to clients with a Squiz SLA, improves the quality (through inbuilt QA testing) and speed of upgrading MySource Matrix.
