Welcome to the Nuxeo Newsletter

Welcome to the first issue of Nuxeo Monthly, our newsletter dedicated to the Nuxeo customers, community and ecosystem. It will provide you with regular insights on our announcements, successes and projects.

The past few months have been both very busy and successful for Nuxeo and our partners. We won several new projects, some of which benefited from large press coverage (AFP and PA), and our R&D team and contributors community have been busy working on enhancing our platform to address the needs of our ever growing user base.

We're very happy to share this with you and as always, remain very concerned with your input. So, please don't hesitate to send your comments or ideas to: news@nuxeo.com

Thanks and best regards,

Stefane Fermigier
Founder and CEO, Nuxeo

We've also released a development version of Nuxeo EP (5.2M1), and plan to release more development milestones during the summer, converging towards a new major release in September.
