1: Difference between ACS & Open ACS
Posted by Yogesh Patil on 12/04/03 11:05 AM
Hello Friends,

  I am learning ACS (ArsDigita Community System)
  but many times when I search for some topic on net then
  many times I got links for Open ACS (Open Architecture
  Community System)

  Can you please tell me the difference between
  ACS (ArsDigita Community System) and
  Open ACS (Open Architecture Community System)

  Waiting for your reply

  Thanks in advance

  Best Regards

    Yogesh

Take a look at https://openacs.org/about/history - this might help explain.

I've worked on ACS for quite a while, and my recommendation is that if you're just starting, learn OpenACS (which is alive) rather than ACS (which is a much older system).
