The main difference are the changes that have been made as part of the LAWs National Project. The main visible difference is the improved back-end authoring process, which is far easier and more functional with the new release. In addition the system has improved XML, which essentially means that any existing APLAWS XSL templates need to be re-written in the move towards an APLAWS+ upgrade – this unfortunate upgrade requirement was necessary to improve the code overall, so that the XML was easier to work with for typical web teams. One of the best improvements of the APLAWS+ code is that it allows for easier packaging and sharing of content types – this was not easily possible with the previous codebase.
