Emagine released version 3.1 of its Site & Content Management suite emagiC – now available in different languages to target the needs of specific markets. Emagine has also moved into several new markets during the first half of 2003 and is now represented through partners and distributors in the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, South Africa and the USA. Emagine is currently negotiating with partners in other countries. Emagine has developed a unique view on multi-lingual software. With most software, the language is determined at install time. Within emagiC, this is done at run-time and per user. Currently, emagiC is available in English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Danish, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. More languages will be added in the near future. With the built-in translation tools, anybody can create a new language version in case it is not yet available from Emagine. emagiC v3.1 also incorporates improved support for different character sets, including Unicode. www.emagiC-CMS.com

Soholaunch.com, Inc. announced the release of a client editable, single Web page publishing tool targeted to hosting companies offering domain name registration.
