We're doing the R&D on this topic, and development will start soon
but we don't have enough visibility to put it in the roadmap.
I'd *like* to have it around October but we can't commit on a date yet.

I want to be able at runtime via an administration GUI to add/
modify/delete document types like 'Medical certificate' with a
series of custom properties attached to it.
So if I resume, it's not currently possible but you're thinking
(and may be working?) on it. I guess you don't have any date?
Fact is I'm currently evaluating some ECM products for our Document
management project, and it is a strong requirement for us.

There are different notions of what "runtime" is.
In the current Nuxeo EP framework, it's not possible to change the
types once the storage repository has been opened.
So changing types "on the fly" while the application is running would
be very difficult.
The use case of dynamically changing the types at runtime is one
we're taking into account, however nothing will be useable before a
few months.
But we're thinking about it :)

Thanks for the answer.
And do you know if there is a plan to have such a GUI in a near
future?
We can always develop our GUI of course if it is possible to do
this programmatically.

To add custom document types with custom meta data, we have to
add/modify some xml and xsd
files and redeploy the Nuxeo application to take into account
those
custom document types.
So I guess it's not possible to do this dynamically at runtime?
Hum, this is done by Nuxeo Runtime, so I guess this is done at
runtime :)
Actually we have a requirement to give to certain end 'super'
users the
ability to define
via a UI interface new custom document types (add/delete/
modify) to
avoid deploying a new
version of the application each time there is a new document
type to
define.
My understanding of Nuxeo is that it's not currently possible
to do
this?
If yes do you plan to have such feature in the future?
You can do it programmatically by building descriptor instances
(XObject
annotated classes) directly from your code and then registering
them to
the
matching runtime services instead of parsing static XML
descriptions.
However Nuxeo does not provide a high level UI to build document
types
(yet).
