Take a look to the New and Noteworthy document to find more information
about the changes done on this release
(http://jlibrary.sourceforge.net/4/whatsnew.html).
You can download jLibrary from the downloads page
(http://jlibrary.sourceforge.net/0/index.html). You can find there Windows
and Linux distributions with or without JRE 1.5 bundled. Note that you
need a JRE 1.5 to run jLibrary.
Once downloaded feel free to follow the Installation, Configuration and
First Steps documents (http://jlibrary.sourceforge.net/5/index.html).
jLibrary user interface is internationalized both in English, Spanish,
French and Italian. If you want to translate jLibrary user interface to
another language (only one resources file has to bee changed) contact with
us - well, you can also contact if you want to help with the project. :-)
jLibrary 1.0 is the fruit of many months of hard work. Is an Open Source
Document Management System released with a BSD license, something that was
needed by the IT industry. This is a very big project with a small team,
so we are open to ideas, contributions, support, donations, etc. You can
contact directly with me to make business or with the jLibrary developers
mailing lists at sourceforge.
We really hope that you like jLibrary.
