Software developer Jam Warehouse announced that their document management system KnowledgeTree has been downloaded over 200,000 times from the premier open source portal, SourceForge.Net, a significant milestone for the project.

“Reaching the 200,000 downloads milestone clearly illustrates the Open Source community’s continuing interest in KnowledgeTree. The community growing around the project is vibrant and exciting, with many of these Open Source downloaders contributing both code and extensions to the project,” says Daniel Chalef of KnowledgeTree developers Jam Warehouse.

The KnowledgeTree Open Source project boasts significant community participation, with the project’s own development “forge”, a community management and hosting system, providing a home for over 30 community-driven projects. These projects range from language packs to feature extensions to the core document management system.

KnowledgeTree, built on the popular open source LAMP (Apache/MySQL/PHP) stack, has been downloaded more than 200,000 times to date. It is being used by Fortune 500 companies, community organizations, local and state governments and educational and scientific institutions around the world.

The application is also available in a commercially supported version, KnowledgeTree Professional, that offers additional functionality including a WebDAV Integration Server and Client Tools for Windows, providing a familiar Windows Explorer and Microsoft Office interface into the document repository and direct-to-repository scanning capability.
