Alfresco has posted a podcast I did with Dr. Ian Howells, Chief Marketing Officer at Alfresco. Check it out here. In this podcast we discuss some of the details behind the Liferay-Alfresco-Roller solution Optaros recently implemented for one of our clients, which I originally mentioned on the blog here.

Optaros Next Generation Internet podcast
The first installment of the Optaros Next Generation Internet podcast is available on iTunes. This episode is focused on the Enterprise Content Management practice at Optaros. In it, I talk a little about open source content management and how it compares to closed-source and SAAS solutions.
New Alfresco tutorial on working with a custom content model
UPDATE (2012): I’ve recently published a second edition of this tutorial that updates the original with Alfresco Share and CMIS.
UPDATE (2014): I’ve moved the tutorial and the source code to GitHub. The HTML version of the tutorial is here. It has been updated for Maven and AMPs.
I’ve written a new article (with sample files) that talks about how to extend Alfresco with your own content model and how to work with content that leverages that model via the Web Services API. All of the examples are written in Java but I do include one in PHP just for grins.
Most of the code is based on the Alfresco SDK Web Services sample code, but I’ve tweaked it here and there and I break it down into smaller chunks with commentary. I also think it is good to have one example to follow that takes you from designing the content model to implementing it to writing code that might leverage it.
