Hey everyone -

I am looking for a Document Management System - it doesn't matter if its integrated with XOOPS or not. I am willing to look at both OpenSource & Commercial apps. Any suggestions??

Thanks

Hi

I have found a document management system in the Brasil module pack You can see it HERE
Look for DMS.

OK, I've tried this module on XOOPS2 and it works fine. I have to say though it's a very "bare bones" production. The functions are very useable an useful, but there is no "finish" to the module.

Here is the changeTXT to give some idea what it does. (no readme)
