| <meta name="description" content="Apache Polygene™ is a community based effort exploring Composite Oriented Programming for domain centric application development. This includes evolved concepts from Aspect Oriented Programming, Dependency Injection and Domain Driven Design. |
| Composite Oriented Programming allows developers to work with 'fragments', smaller than classes, and 'compose' fragments into larger 'composites' which acts like the regular objects. Apache Polygene™ also tackles the enforcement of application composition, i.e. composites are declared in modules, modules are contained in layers and access between layers are controlled/enforced. |

| <h2 id="apache-zest-renamed-to-apache-polygene">Apache® Zest™ Renamed to Apache® Polygene™</h2> |
| |
| <p>Apache Zest is changing name to <strong>Apache Polygene</strong>. The change has been carried out |
| for the most part, and we are still in the process of encuring all naming is accurate |
| going forward.</p> |
| |
| <p>“The name change was triggered to prevent confusion with other similarly named software |
| such as the visualization toolkit from Eclipse,” said Niclas Hedhman, Vice President of |
| Apache Polygene. “Since becoming an official ASF project, our codebase and community |
| continue to flourish. We are confident that our new identity will reflect ongoing |
| innovation and increased productivity.”</p> |
| |
| <p>With the name we want to communicate that Apache Polygene is polymorphic in nature, |
| and that it is possible to inherit traits in non-standard Java, yet using regular Java |
| and not a new language on top of the JVM.</p> |
