Hello,
I have readed about your project and I'm thinking that perhaps you can found interesting my product OpenProdoc.
- OpenProdoc is a very easy to use Document Management System where a lawyer or group of Lawyers can store the documents and cases.
- It's posible to define Document types and Folder types so that you can see and search by different criteria of information.
- The ACL and administration posibilities means that, if required, it's posible to assign diferent case to different users, avoiding to modify or even read from not allowed cases.
- It's possible to mix internal documents (scanned or written) with references to Internet or Intranet documents/pages (to Laws or judgments) so that in a folder is stored all the relevant information to a prosecution.
- It's possible to export and import documents or complete folders/cases so different lawyers can share information
- Finally, is very compact and easy to maintain, not requiring even a J2EE server to use (of course can be used in J2EE) so that it's posible to have all the information running in a laptop, without requiring connection.
If you found interesting the idea, please ask me more information.
