Galatea
Galatea 1.0
Galatea is an online publication tool developed by the arts faculty of the K.U. Leuven (Belgium). The aim of this joint effort is to provide professors and students with an easy to use platform for making online publications.
Technically, galatea has been programmed in macromedia coldfusion and since version II it has been modularized according to the open source methodology fusebox.

Toulouse implementation of Galatea 1.0
Since Mai 2001, the Formation Continue of the Toulouse university-Le-Mirail has constructed a testsite with their implementation of the Galatea platform (see screenshot left). From January 2001 onwards it will be used as a fully-fledged intranet application with entire curriculae based on Galatea technology.
