Legal Case Management software team presents the first public release
Thursday 4th November 2004 by Mathieu Lutfy
The first release of the Legal Case Management system has been published
on November 1st 2004 on Source Forge, as a symbolic step to start the
testing and translation process of the software.
A list of features which have been included into this release is
available in the LCM ChangeLog.
This first LCM release includes basic functionalities for managing
cases, clients, organisations and follow-ups. It also includes an easy
to use installation tool and it allows administrators to setup a policy
on collaborative work.
Future releases of LCM will include a more polished and more intuitive
user interface, a higher level of personalisation and basic reporting
and archiving facilities for administrators.
We encourage the community to test and review the software at an early
stage so that we can quickly integrate the feedback from their experience.
- A public website is available for testing and review:
www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/public/
- The source code of the software can be downloaded from the LCM project
page on Source Forge.
Weekly bulletins will be sent to the testers mailing-lists to keep them
informed of software’s new features, bugs found and fixed, etc. If you
