WGS to Open Source web2school:

WGS has decided to go the Open Source route with its web2school TM product. We are in the process of finalizing the licensing and cleaning up the source code with regards to copyrights and other legal issues. Since this is a complicated endeavor which few companies have undertaken, we at WGS are taking the cautious approach to this transformation. We hope to complete this transformation and be Open Sourced by the beginning of the next school year.

  • Why are we doing this?

-          Web2school modular architecture fits with the ideology of Open-Source.

-          Uses open source technology like Java, MySQL, and Jasper Reports.

-          Extremely stable and mature product with an existing customer base lends credibility for Open-Source Software.

  • What does it mean for you?
