[OT] new open source digital asset management software
DISCLAIMER: a good friend of mine works for the company, but i have absolutely no financial interest of any kind. http://www.nuxeo.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/QuickStart_DAM i am about to download it and see how well it works on f12. it's pre-release so the possibility of breakage is very real. like fedora people need that kind of caution. :-) rday -- Robert P.

This is an 'inventory control system' and a storage system. Since it is also an asset management system the implication is that you have money involved which mandates accountability and backups. I have trouble managing my music collection... what you are asking for is 'larger' in scope. If you think of it as 'inventory' from the get go you will end up with close to the right thing. -- NiftyFedora T o m M i t c h e l l -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

I don't want to have to reinvent the wheel if it already exists. Sounds like you need a decent web server. I would look at a content management system as a base and build from that. No single application will do all what you want and it sounds that a web server would be the best thing.

RE: Asset Management
hi,. take this with a grain of salt. i would suggest that you look at one of the open source apps, and talk with the dev team if possible, or submit your initial request to their email lists if they have one. (assuming you haven't done this yet!!) i'm willing to bet that pieces of what you want, already exist, but that you're going to have to invest some programming to get it just right for your needs... good luck on this one! -Original Message- From: fedora-list-boun...@redhat.com [mailto:fedora-list-boun...@redhat.com]on Behalf Of Ashley M.

It sounds like your best approach would be to take a general-purpose database and customize it to your business needs. Then you get what you really want.
