eZ Publish is a content management system and development framework. As a content management system (CMS), its most notable feature is its revolutionary, fully customizable, and extendable content model. This is also what makes it suitable as a platform for general Web development. Its stand-alone libraries can be used for cross-platform, database independent PHP projects. eZ Publish is also well suited for news publishing, e-commerce (B2B and B2C), portals, and corporate Web sites, intranets, and extranets. eZ Publish is dual licenced between GPL and the eZ Publish professional licence.

Recent releases


Changes: This release includes "object states" for typical editorial workflows, Solaris support, Oracle support, a new WYSIWYG editor, easy multi-file upload, extensions geared to intranets and extranets, substantial performance enhancements, and more.


Changes: Complete PHP 5 compatibility. Full support for using eZ Components, eZ’s PHP enterprise components library. Performance improvements. Improved internal XML handling for increased performance and reduced memory usage. An updated Web site interface with a new graphical design and enhancements.


Changes: This is the first release based on PHP 5. It incorporates various performance enhancements while maintaining a smooth upgrade path for existing eZ Publish sites. All the functionality of the 3.10 series is included.


Changes: This release fixes the remaining issues with the new multioption datatype. In addition, an upgrading issue and several other reported bugs were fixed. New features include improved clustering performance, an improved tree menu, an enhanced ISBN-13 datatype, and NiceURL (url_alias) with multilingual support. It is now possible to have dependencies between option lists. For example, if you select an option in an option list, options in a different option list can be disabled.


Changes: This release fixes a security issue of high severity. It also fixes several reported bugs. Insufficient permission checking was done on module views that do not have a policy function defined. This could cause problems in modules where views with a policy function were mixed with views without a policy function. This flaw made the discount functionality in the shop module vulnerable. Sites where users have explicit permission to policies in the setup module could also be vulnerable.

Folks, you could have been more honest and just say "we're too few".
TYPO3 is doing PHP5 and MySQL5 for quite a time, and even if I personally don't do "bleeding edge" and run it on Linux 2.4, Apache 1.3, PHP4 and MySQL4, it's better to have choice.
We've considered eZ when choosing a major CMS/CMF two years ago but it was put away with Drupal (with Mambo not even considered, and its licensing/marketing troubles are quite an example of how *not* to blend free software and money... good luck to eZ to avoid that, but it's hard).

Correct. eZ publish will be ported to PHP5 once PHP5
is stable enough and has gained enough markedshare
to be used by big PHP applications like eZ publish.
An optimistic guess is a year from now.
