GeneWeb
Sign in to saveGeneWeb is a free multi-platform genealogy software tool created and owned by Daniel de Rauglaudre of INRIA. GeneWeb is accessed by a Web browser, either off-line or as a server in a Web environment. It uses very efficient techniques of relationship and consanguinity computing, developed in collaboration with Didier Rémy, research director at INRIA. GeneWeb is used as the engine for several public genealogy websites, including Geneanet, a collection of inter-searchable genealogical databases currently containing references to more than 225 million persons.
Source code
Version 7.1 is currently in beta. The software is stable and thoroughly tested. The "beta" label exists only because the internal database format is not yet compatible with Geneanet’s infrastructure. This will be resolved for the final 7.1.0 release. This only needs to be done once. After that, geneweb.command will work normally. GeneWeb is free software distributed under the GNU General Public License v2.
