WSO2 Registry 0.1 Released

WSO2 Registry enables you to store, catalog, index and manage
your enterprise meta data in a simple, scalable and easy-to-use
model. It is designed around community concepts such as
tags, comments, ratings, users and roles. Think of the registry
as a structured wiki designed to help you manage your
meta-data in a simple business-friendly system.

In addition, the registry allows you to store more unstructured
data such as Word documents, Excel spreadsheets and text
formats. Using these approaches, you can build a catalog of
enterprise information ranging from services, service descriptions
to employee data and on going projects.

WSO2 Registry can be deployed in Application Servers and
access using the Web UI or the APP interface. It can also be
used as a Java library inside other Java programs as
a resource store with all community features and versioning.

WSO2 Registry is released under the Apache License v2.0
