In a recent announcement, productivity and compliance software developer ApplTop Solutions Limited stated they are making their entire product suite, as well as a majority of the source code, available under their new ApplTop Free & Open Software License:
Under the new AFOS License, any organisation that is an “end user” of Oracle E-Business Suite (AFOS excludes competitors, service companies…etc) can download ApplTop Applications from the ApplTop website (http://www.appltop.com) and install and use all of our products without charge. Furthermore, 99% of our source code is also available so you can help expand and improve our products (or maybe learn from them) by being part of the ApplTop Community Enhancement (ACE) program.
All products offered to e-Business Suite 11i end users by ApplTop Solutions are now available as a single installation, and are collectively referred to as ApplTop Applications. The products within the suite have been designed specifically for the Oracle 11i e-Business Suite, which ensures seamless integration and the same look and feel of the end user interface. Products available within ApplTop Applications include:
