This week, the R&D team worked like crazy to release a new version of Bonita Open Solution: the “M5″. Like the similarly named BMW, this release is a powerful vehicle that includes 3 great new features: the groovy editor, the connector wizard and the form editor. And this is only a milestone on the way to the final version.
The Bonita Open Solution v5 “M5″ will be available this week to download for test drivers.
BonitaSoft launched its French web site : http://fr.bonitasoft.com/
The BonitaSoft Community Team hopes our American members had a Happy Thanksgiving holiday.

Live from R&D
As we said, the R&D team worked hard to release the M5 version. So this week was dedicated to stabilizing. The R&D team played all week with Bonita Open Solution and has created a bunch of example processes – some almost real, some pretty funny. These processes will be soon available in this blog. Stay tuned.
