Hi Dimitris,

This would be a bit too easy, isn'it?

The Jahia codebase is divided in two parts with two distinct licenses:
- the community part which is released under a 100% open-source MPL-like license. This corresponds roughly to 80% of the codebase. - Commercial extensions released under a more restricted but still with full source code license: the sustainable license (www.sustainablesoftware.info for more information). So even if you have the source code of such extensions as part of the overall Jahia distributions and even if you are free to take a look into them, modify them or even redistribute them, you are only entitltes to use them for research and development purposes. As soon as you want to use them for production, you need to pay some royalties (that you can pay in cash... or in kind by contributing to the software).

This what we call our "sustainable business model". We offer for free 80% of the codebase but we still need to make our livings. So active contributors get free credit licenses and other need to pay a form of cash contribution to the project. Like for any associations where you have some yearly subscription fees... I think this is quite fair given the amount of work and investments all current stakeholders provided to this project.

Cheers,
Stéphane

Sorry, maybe it wasn't quite clear what I meant.

I'm not going to build the multilanguage module from scratch. This wouldn't make any sense! What I asked instead, was whether it would be possible to get a full-fledged version of Jahia ( i.e. without the limitations of the community edition) by downloading and building (using Maven or Ant) the source.

Best regards,
Dimitris

The Jahia Community Edition is open source so yes, you can fork it and redevelop yourself another multilanguage module on top of it.

However I am quite sure that this will take you much more time and budget than buying the multilanguage module... We are working on it for the last 3 years... so this is not a tricky and easy development.... Now of course I can not restrict someone to reinvent the wheel ;-)

Cheers,
Stéphane

Thanks Stephane,

Well, would it be possible if I downloaded the source code and build it on my own?

Many thanks
Dimitris

Hi,
Multilanguage support is only available as part
of the Standard Edition (commercial add-on
module). So you will need to buy the Standard
Edition of Jahia in order to activate multilanguage support.
