+Overview

+

+ Compared to its predecessors, version 4.5 of OpenACS has a much + more structured organization, i.e. the most + significant change is found at the system architecture level, + reflected in the following hierarchy: +

+
    +

  • The OpenACS 4.5 Kernel, which handles system-wide necessities + such as metadata, security, users and groups, subsites, and + package management and deployment. +

    • +

  • The OpenACS 4.5 Core, which comprises all the other packages + that ship with the kernel and are most frequently needed by users, + such as templating, bboard, and user registration/management. The + packages tend to be developed and distributed with the kernel. +

    • +

  • +OpenACS 4.5 Application packages, which typically provide + user-level web services built on top of the Kernel and Core. Such + packages include those built by ArsDigita as well as external + contributors. Application packages are developed separately from + the Kernel, and are typically released independently of it. +

    • +
+

+ This document provides a high level overview of the kernel + package. Documentation for the other packages can be found elsewhere. +
