Open Source Content Management Framework

8.09.2 "Bosporus queries"

 

The version is targeted to ease transition from web services using the deprecated Midgard 1.x APIs to the new Midgard2 architecture. Because of this, the release provides both API versions. This means that the release can be used to run both Midgard 1 applications like the version 2.9 of the MidCOM component framework, and Midgard2 applications like MidCOM3.
