Day's Beta Program a Resounding Success; Software Companies in U.S. and Europe to Build Next-Generation Products on Day's Java Content Repository Extreme -CRX-.

BASEL, Switzerland & IRVINE, Calif. -- Day Software (SWX:DAYN) (Pink Sheets:DYIHY), a leading provider of global content management and content infrastructure software, today announced that software makers in the U.S. and Europe have completed the beta testing of Day's Content Repository Extreme (CRX) with excellent results.

The extensive list includes companies such as Obinary, NOHETO, Enonic, Roxen, Hybris, Atos Origin, Namics, QS Labs, Optivo, Silversite, ProviderLink, Xaware, and several others that have been involved with the Beta program from its inception. With the Content Repository API for Java Technology (JSR 170) specification now finalized, these companies are planning to integrate CRX in their product offerings to use CRX to deliver highly innovative custom solutions.

"The decision to cooperate with Day, the company that is leading the standard initiative was easy: Day has the most profound JSR 170 knowledge in the industry. And Day's CRX is by far the leading-edge Java Content Repository technology on the market," said Pascal Mangold, CEO, Obinary. "With JSR 170 quickly becoming the dominant content repository standard for our industry, we believe that Day's CRX product line provides a clear competitive advantage to us as well as to our customers. We decided to embed Day's CRX product because it allows us to focus on our core competency: building great software that is easy to use, powerful and standards-compliant. Working with Day gives us the assurance that we have access to real industry-leading technology."

Day's CRX is the first fully JSR 170 compliant content repository that makes high-value enterprise content easily accessible for any application. CRX allows for the storage, retrieval and management of content across large-scale enterprises. CRX protects technology investment in content and applications and enables companies to create a content infrastructure that is future-proof and sustainable.

"Our customers are regulated by FDA and JCAHO. One of their main challenges is to get access and manage critical documents locked up by proprietary document management systems. QS Labs is leveraging Day's CRX to break this obstacle by providing access to these documents across the entire suite of QS Labs' Compliance Process Management Systems," said Joe Lindsay, president and CTO, QS Labs.

"Our industry is moving out from adolescence and entering the age of maturity. JSR 170 is a key success measure that will provide our customers with a competitive advantage - an outstanding solution that is finally based on an industry standard," said Paul Perdrieu, CEO, NOHETO. "We have already implemented solutions that are based on Java Content Repository technology for customers such as SFR Cegetel; this approach has provided a significant differentiator in the marketplace for NOHETO. As Day Software is the company that is leading the standard initiative, the decision to work with their CRX product made perfect sense."

"After three years of continued investment, Day is proud to be the first company to make this innovative technology commercially available," said Michael Moppert, chairman and CEO, Day Software. "The software industry is now making our new repository product CRX a key component of innovative new solutions. This is an excellent validation of our technology. Today, we are the leader in the emerging market of Java Content Repositories and we are excited about this substantial growth potential for Day Software."
