While we weren't looking, Ingeniux quietly released a long-awaited version 5 of its CMS product. The company says that the new version reflects major usability testing and greater emphasis on multi-channel publishing, including a new module to generate PDFs via XSL-FO from the Ingeniux XML-based repository. I haven't seen the new version in action yet, but those seem like useful improvements. Two of our knocks against the previous version were indeed its somewhat clunky interface and its inability to support more object-oriented chunking and re-use of XML documents, so it will be interesting to see the extent to which version 5 has addressed those shortcomings. Our third knock against Ingeniux was its funky, X-ified URLs that lack any directory structure; these appear to remain (c.f., http://www.ingeniux.com/x590.xml, or http://www.goucher.edu/x9632.xml on a largish customer site). As of today, the company's European arm (in Spain) still sells version 4.2.
