The ICEcat editor backoffice as a Product Data Management (PDM) system... that's a new challenge that we are pursuing. It is stress-tested by our own internal large-scale PDM activity in the worldwide IT, CE, Telecom and Stationary sectors. It can handle millions of product entries, and 10s of simultaneous editors. It is able to import data (xml) from multiple sources, and export in a standardized multilingual xml format.
We regularly get requests for help with setting up a PDM, and have finalized a few external projects. So, it is clear that there is demand.
As we are dedicated to the Open Source philosophy, we will publish our PDM under the GNU GPL open source license.
What are the steps to take?
1) Solving a few minor user interface (layout) issues
2) Copy the latest version of our PDM and cleanup the database
3) Zip it and publish it on sourceforge.com
We expect to be ready to publish in January 2010.
