eZ Publish Delivers Software Upgrades And Significant Growth
eZ Systems has had an exciting few weeks, including terrific earnings, a solid new release of its flagship content management system and nomination for a prominent open source content management award.
Over the past few years, eZ Systems have made a name for themselves with eZ Publish, their open source content management software. They hit the 2.5 million download mark earlier this year, and show no signs of slowing down. As announced last week, eZ Publish is a finalist for Packt Publishing’s 2008 Open Source CMS Awards. It’s an honor to be nominated, goes the old saying, but it’s even better to win, and voting on Packt Publishing’s website is open until mid October.
