CollabNet expands software-development platform
The platform’s open architecture enables globally distributed software development teams to use web services to integrate their development environments. SourceForge Enterprise Edition 4.4 is the first update to the development platform since CollabNet acquired SourceForge’s software business in April.
“Prior to the acquisition, CollabNet and SourceForge were the only two collaborative software development companies to use the internet and web services as the infrastructure to power their platforms. Now that we have SourceForge on board, we do not intend to let the product die off. Rather, we want to actually extend support for the product before bringing the technology into a single stream alongside CollabNet’s technology stack and the work that we do with Subversion,” said Bas Nijjer, CollabNet’s general manager for the UK.
Version 4.4 can help organisations who want to utilise Soap web services to optimise development tools and processes, and it can accelerate development efficiency on a global scale with minimal disruption.
SourceForge Enterprise Edition’s integrated suite of development tools provides control over critical project tasks and assets by integrating disparate developmentintellectual propertyand tools on a common development platform, while automatically keeping team members appraised of deadlines and task assignments.
