Adobe and Alfresco announced a significant partnership today to embed Alfresco’s content management software into Adobe’s LiveCycle Enterprise Suite. The inclusion of Alfresco enriches the Adobe LiveCycle experience, as Adobe’s Brian Wick notes:
For example, if a user is filling out a loan package, the application would go into the repository to package together other content related to the process.
“It’s much easier, much quicker for our customers to build LiveCycle apps with the content services piece built in,” Wick stated.
I’m biased, but I see this as one more step to facilitating content as the center of the web/software experience. As Adobe customers like the State of Louisiana are suggesting, it makes it simple to link content to a process or application. It has wide applicability to governments, healthcare organizations, and other enterprises that need to wrap business processes around content.
It’s also a great addition to Adobe’s previously reported work with Alfresco, the Adobe Share product that integrates Alfresco.
Adobe notes that Alfresco was a clear choice:

Just a reminder, as Robert hinted half an hour ago today is “Download Day” for Firefox 3. If you haven’t yet downloaded the official 3.0 release, be sure to do it this day! Firefox is trying to set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloads in 24 hours. At 10 AM PDT (1:00 PM EDT) head over here to get your official download. Note: Only downloads from Mozilla’s official site count towards the record.
It’s not all about Mozilla’s pride, really! Firefox 3 will bring many changes for all Mac users (mostly good), as this is the first release of Firefox that is built primarily using Cocoa for the underlying Gecko 1.9 engine (a project that’s been in the works for years). Along with better redraw speed (CoreGraphics vs. the older QuickDraw API) and improved memory handling, the new engine provides the groundwork for a pure-Cocoa, 64-bit clean version of Firefox in the future. Firefox 3’s UI is more Maclike now, with Aqua-style widgets improving the view. You can read more about the architectural changes to Firefox 3 and Gecko 1.9 at developer Josh Aas’ blog.
So head on over to Spread Firefox, we’re sure you can’t go wrong! If you’re in the mood to party with the Firefox launch day crowd, check Mozilla’s celebration site for activities near you.

For those of you who aren’t looking forward to Firefox 3’s default new look this day, might I recommend an FF2 theme called GrApple Yummy, from Aronnax. It makes Firefox a dead ringer for Safari. In fact, Aronnax claims it looks three times more beautiful than Safari. Your mileage, of course, might vary.
GrApple Yummy is available in two flavors, blue and graphite. Blue contains three-color window controls, while graphite, as you might envision, has gray window controls.
Both themes are donationware.
