Mayan (or Mayan EDMS) is a web-based free/libre document management system for managing documents within an organization. [4] All functionality is available in its free public version.[5][6] It has an active community of volunteers[7][8] and third-party service and support providers.[9]

Its largest installation as of June 2012 is Puerto Rico's main permit agency (20,000+ documents).[10]

History and features

Mayan started as a project whose only requirement was the storage of PDF files for a government agency transitioning to an all electronic registration process and has grown into a general system since then.[11][12][13]

It is designed to be easy to migrate to different physical computers.[14] It is written in Python using the Django framework. Features include document versioning,[15] electronic signature verification, multilingual support,[16] discussion tools,[17] user-defined metadata and unique identifiers, and roles support.[18]

Mayan EDMS was featured on the free software / open source (FLOSS) themed podcast FLOSS Weekly episode 253[19] aired on May 29, 2013.
