NGA is the first to embrace the new version of Jahia's open source CMS in replacement of proprietary solution

(firmenpresse) - GENEVA, SWITZERLAND and WASHINGTON, D.C. -- (Marketwire) -- 10/04/11 -- , provider of Java-based open source CMS solutions, announced today that the National Governors Association () has re-launched its website using Jahia 6.5, the first open source next-generation CMS, which bridges web, portal, social, search, and mobile user experiences with a single composite platform.
