STA Travels the Globe to Implement RedDot Content Management System
-------------------------------------------------------------------
STA Travel migrates international Web sites to RedDot CMS, delivering powerful
personalization and translation tools
Toronto, Ontario and London, England - August 2, 2006 - Hummingbird Ltd.
(NASDAQ: HUMC, TSX: HUM), a leading global provider of integrated enterprise
content management (ECM) and network connectivity solutions today announced that
STA Travel, the world's largest student travel organization helping students
travel in over 90 countries, has revamped and standardized its global Web
presence using the Web content management solution from RedDot Solutions, a
Hummingbird company.
STA Travel is using RedDot CMS on a global scale for all of its Web sites, such
as www.statravel.co.uk, offering exciting enhancements including localization
and language translation. In a major shift, STA Travel product staff will now
enjoy the benefits of fast travel information upload, simplified Web processes
and ownership of their own content sections.
Personalization, Compliance & Translation
- -----------------------------------------
RedDot CMS provides STA Travel with the tools to powerfully enhance the
technical aspects of its Web site. Additionally, RedDot LiveServer enables the
company to pull content from partner travel sites such as `Lonely Planet,'
`Whats on When' and `Off Exploring,' allowing customers to preview destination
information on STA Travel sites. Furthermore, STA Travel has utilized RedDot CMS
to help protect their brand and achieve a unified look and feel while
maintaining `A' standard compliance. This has greatly improved visitors' ease of
use and the company's search engine optimization ranking.
"To achieve online brand consistency, and stay ahead of the game in a fiercely
competitive market, we had to migrate to a single global content management
infrastructure. We are delighted with the implementation so far and have an
ambitious, but achievable schedule for continued rollout," said Craig Hepburn,
Global Webmaster for STA Travel. "The great thing about RedDot CMS is that our
staff members have found it extremely easy to use, in particular our `product
owners' who are responsible for the marketing of individual travel products.
Getting content online quickly is also no longer a problem - and this is vital
for driving online sales.
"Importantly, RedDot CMS has enabled us to build the site to a much higher
standard. In fact, we are already seeing a positive response from customers as
we have been able to upload around 20% more product offerings much more
efficiently. We have also maximized the potential of RedDot LiveServer by
delivering dynamic content from `Lonely Planet' and `Whats On When'. This
provides our online customers with great travel products and up to date content
about destinations," added Hepburn.
..
STA Travel's global standardization has been launched across the UK, Australia,
US and Canada. The company has recently launched their local language sites to
other large markets including Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Current
migrations are being carried out in the Nordics, South Africa and Asia, which
will be facilitated by RedDot Translation Editor.
"A company such as STA Travel, which works in an extremely competitive online
environment, is heavily reliant on its Web presence for business. Delivering
relevant dynamic content to online customers with consistent brand recognition
look and feel is imperative to any online global business today," said Peter
Aylward, Managing Director at RedDot Solutions in the UK. "The key to RedDot's
success with STA Travel is a powerful CMS that is easy to use and fast to deploy
- - there is a fast payback."
RedDot CMS and RedDot LiveServer are integral components of Hummingbird's market
leading enterprise content management offering.

Hummingbird Releases Hummingbird Connectivity(TM) 2007 - Ready for Windows Vista
Latest version offers support for X11R7.1, stronger security and
improved administrative tools
Toronto - August 14, 2006 - Hummingbird Ltd. (NASDAQ: HUMC, TSX: HUM), a leading
global provider of integrated enterprise content management (ECM) and network
connectivity solutions, today announced the immediate availability of
Hummingbird ConnectivityTM 2007, a feature-rich and robust suite of technologies
that helps organizations meet the challenges of integrating heterogeneous legacy
infrastructures, such as UNIX(R) or Mainframe, with Windows(R) desktops, while
providing cost effectiveness.
Hummingbird Connectivity includes Exceed(R), NFS Maestro(TM), HostExplorer(R)
and Hummingbird Security(TM) product families and supports 32-bit and 64-bit
Windows operating systems such as Windows(R) 2000, Windows(R) XP and Windows
Server(TM) 2003. Additionally, all products in the suite support Windows(R)
Terminal Server Edition and Citrix(R) Presentation Server(TM). Connectivity 2007
is Hummingbird's first suite of products to be ready for Windows VistaTM - the
upcoming and highly-anticipated Windows(R) operating system.
"The perennial market leader, Hummingbird Connectivity continues to deliver
numerous industry-first, innovative and user-driven features," said Barry
Litwin, President and Chief Executive Officer, Hummingbird Ltd. "Our customers
have always been instrumental in our development efforts over the years and
together we have achieved success. Now with Windows Vista support and a
commitment to obtain Vista certification, we are even more dedicated to
delivering unparalleled product functionality and substantive return on
investment."
Innovation - The Fuel to Hummingbird Connectivity Success
The ability to provide innovative, first-to-market features that either
anticipate or drive market trends is what makes Hummingbird the leader in the
connectivity market.
o Support for latest X11 standard - Exceed is first in Hummingbird
Connectivity 2007 offering commercial support for X11R7.1 - the latest X
Window System technology release.
o Event Monitoring Server - A new addition to Hummingbird Connectivity 2007,
Event Monitoring Server is a robust and scalable facility designed to help
administrators gather information about their Connectivity infrastructure.
o Delegation and SECINFO Support - NFS Maestro is the first PC NFS solution
in the industry to support advanced NFSv4 features such as Delegation - a
performance enhancing feature that is achieved through aggressive client
caching, allowing NFS server to delegate particular operations to NFS
clients and reduce over-the-wire network traffic and the latency associate
with it; and SECINFO - a mechanism that allows an NFS client to discover
what security flavor is required in order to successfully connect to a
shared file system on a remote NFS server.
o Central Repository - Multiple Profile Space allows organizations to set up
one or multiple central repositories to store Exceed and HostExplorer
connection settings including local drives, remote file systems or LDAP
directories. User access rights are enforced through a seamless integration
with Microsoft Windows ACLs or LDAP ACLs.
o Xinerama and X Video Support - Exceed 2007 provides support for Xinerama -
an extension that allows X applications and window managers to properly
recognize multiple physical monitors and adjust the behavior of the
application accordingly; and X Video - an extension that utilizes hardware
capacities to speed up video playback and to reduce total CPU time on both
systems running Exceed and the X client.
Stronger Security
The Hummingbird Security product family grows even stronger in Connectivity 2007
with several key enhancements:
o X.509 Certificate Authentication for SSH - Connectivity Secure Shell(TM)
now offers support for the draft RFC of the SSH public key authentication
based on a user X.509 certificate.
o Integrated SOCKS Support - SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol that
enables hosts on one side of a SOCKS server to gain full access to hosts on
the other side of the SOCKS server without requiring direct
IP-reachability. Often used as a network firewall, this new feature allows
users to configure sessions to use a SOCKS server.
o LIPKEY Support - NFS Maestro 2007 introduces support for Low Infrastructure
Public Key (LIPKEY) as an alternative GSS provider for RPCSEC_GSS
authentication.

Hummingbird Unveils Desktop Remote Access Application
Solution for Linux(R)
Exceed onDemand(R) 6 offers Linux and Windows(R) desktop users secure,
high-performance remote access application over LAN and WAN
Toronto, Ontario and LinuxWorld Conference and Expo, San Francisco, CA - August

of integrated enterprise content management (ECM) and network connectivity
solutions, today unveiled Exceed onDemand(R) 6 with an innovative X11 remote

allow Windows(R) and now Linux users to quickly and accurately access X11
applications and data across any type of network connection.
With increasing popularity and acceptance of Linux as an alternative enterprise

that harnesses the power of the Linux operating system, freeing Linux users from
IT infrastructure constraints, and providing them with the ultimate flexibility
to access business applications and data over any type of network.

requirements made by the Linux community in creating Exceed onDemand 6.
A component of the Hummingbird Connectivity(TM) family of products, Exceed
onDemand is the most powerful and complete ultra-thin, multi-tiered X server on
the market. While sharing the same roots as Hummingbird Exceed(R), the
award-winning PC X server from Hummingbird, Exceed onDemand 6 delivers
unprecedented performances for X11 application display over LAN and WAN as a
result of Hummingbird's highly efficient Thin X Protocol on Windows and Linux
desktops.
Exceed onDemand also provides significant security and productivity gains for
remote application displays including:
o Strong authentication, simplified firewall traversal and end-to-end
communication encryption over SSL and Secure Shell
o Ability to suspend and resume sessions, and automatic session recovery in
case of communication failure
o Shared sessions to facilitate collaborative work
o Central administration and minimal deployment efforts
"Hummingbird customers recognize the benefits of Linux in the enterprise
environment and we are committed to helping them realize those benefits," said
Xavier Chaillot, director of product management and product marketing,
Hummingbird Connectivity. "By bringing the Exceed onDemand technology to the
Linux platform, Hummingbird provides customers with the most secure,
high-performance X11 application display solution on the market."

Hummingbird Launches RedDot LiveServer 3.0
Toronto, Ontario and New York, NY - August 15, 2006 - Hummingbird Ltd. (NASDAQ:
HUMC, TSX: HUM), a leading global provider of integrated enterprise content
management (ECM) and network connectivity solutions, today announced the global
availability of RedDot LiveServer 3.0, the latest release of its Content
Delivery and Web Application Integration software from RedDot Solutions, a
Hummingbird company.
RedDot LiveServer delivers personalization, contextual delivery, extended search
and application integration to help organizations deliver content in context and
extend their content management investment.
Organizations who put content to use with contextual delivery help fulfil the
high expectations of visitors, customers and prospects. According to Forrester
Research, "Delivering quality content through the customer-facing Web site while
delivering poor content through the call center can lead to customer
dissatisfaction when customer service reps are unable to quickly handle customer
calls. Delivering quality content through an email campaign without having the
same quality content available to the end user when she arrives at the
customer-facing Web site leads to a poor customer experience. Enterprises
focused on improving the customer experience often recognize that content unites
these different channels and helps provide a more consistent and persuasive
customer experience."(1)
Focused on helping organizations better deliver content, RedDot LiveServer 3.0
now features:
o Integrated Web analytics, provided with Hummingbird BI Query technology, to
allow organizations to understand how the content of their site is being
used to quickly update their Web site and online campaigns based on that
knowledge.
o New out-of-the-box reports with extensive analytic options, which give
marketers important information on content and campaign performance to
optimize site performance.
o Extended integration options to access existing documents from other
leading document management systems. LiveServer's `Content Integrator'
module now provides check-in/check-out and write access to all document
repositories to allow users to create, change and delete information, as
well as read documents.
o Improved search engine functionality for complex and personalized search
queries enabling capabilities such as faceted searching, which are
especially critical for intranets and extranets.
- ----------------------
(1) Excerpted from The Forrester Wave(TM): Content-Centric Applications, Q1
2006, Forrester Research, Inc., March 2006.
"LiveServer 3.0 gives organizations powerful personalization and content
delivery technology; LiveServer lets them put business content to use," said
Detlef Kamps, president of RedDot Solutions. "As more and more companies strive
to determine how customers or potential prospects are using and interacting with
their site, LiveServer 3.0's integrated Web analytics allow organizations to
easily update their site content based on those usage patterns."
RedDot LiveServer consistently meets the demanding requirements of customers
such as American Dietetic Association, City and County of San Francisco Human
Services Agency, Government of Alberta, Kinetic Concepts, Inc., National Academy
Foundation and Sloan Valve.

software to create and manage the content that drives business. Recognized

Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP serves many of the world's largest and
best-known businesses, nonprofits and individuals. "Our Firm's information
management goals require integrating information from multiple firm systems. We
use our Web Portal as the delivery vehicle where these assets, the firm's
collective knowledge about people, companies, relationships, experience and
expertise, intersect in an attorney-preferred desktop view," said Andy Jurczyk,
Chief Information Officer at Sonnenschein. "We partnered with both Microsoft and
Hummingbird to develop a Web portal platform using and integrating the latest
technologies from both companies. The portal provides our attorneys with the
flexibility to organize information into client, matter and practice-centric
views for optimal productivity and client service.
"We are contemplating integrating Hummingbird's LegalKEY Records Management
within our SharePoint portal for transparency into client records as well as
e-filing capabilities. Further, we are planning new client extranets as well as
Web site advances all as a direct result of our work with Microsoft and
Hummingbird and the synergies among their product offerings," adds Jurczyk.
Taylor Vinters, a leading regional UK law firm and long established Hummingbird
user will be deploying the newly released Hummingbird eDocs for Microsoft
SharePoint as part of a major development they are undertaking to deliver
combined CRM, financial and document information to all staff, facilitating
improved working efficiencies and better customer contact and service.
"Software such as Hummingbird Enterprise, Microsoft Dynamics and SharePoint
Portal have opened up fantastic possibilities for IT to deliver to the firm real
tangible benefits in improving the firm's access to information," said Steve
Sumner, Director of IT at Taylor Vinters. "The ability to interface Microsoft's
SharePoint platform with Hummingbird technology will be a key benefit for us. It
will enable people to call up in an instant a list of documents for a client and
work on them, all with a simple search, and not only documents but CRM and
financial information as well. That all translates to real financial benefits by
making us more efficient in doing what we do with Microsoft SharePoint Server,
while Hummingbird Enterprise addresses of all our document management needs.
"That holy grail of integrated IT at the front of the house is coming closer
with Hummingbird and Microsoft joined together. Our ongoing investment in their
technology is ready to spring us forward," added Sumner.
Located in Brussels, the EFTA Surveillance Authority was formed to ensure that
European Economic Area (EEA) rules are properly enacted and applied by the EFTA
States, which include Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. The EFTA Surveillance
Authority is currently evaluating eDocs for Microsoft SharePoint in order to
implement a system that enables two way electronic communication with external
parties and the Authority. This comprises both uploading of information by
external parties and publishing of structured and unstructured content for
search and retrieval purposes.
"For us, the principal value we see in the integration is the easy way that we
may integrate our internal Hummingbird Enterprise document management system in
different situations and be able to expose only a subset of the content to
external parties. We plan to implement subsites that general users may use for
accessing information that is non-confidential," said Battista Vailati, Officer,
Information Technology for the EFTA Surveillance Authority. "Additionally, by
leveraging our Hummingbird document management repository through Microsoft
SharePoint, we will be able to create these subsites considerably faster than in
the past."
Hummingbird partner, Eli Rotenberg, from Systematics Ltd. states: "Hummingbird
has done a good job exposing the functionality of Hummingbird Enterprise DM from
within the Microsoft SharePoint environment. From the perspective of an end
user, the integration is quite intuitive and will not require any special
training for those who are familiar with Hummingbird Enterprise DM. From the
point of view of the system administrator, installation and configuration of the
integrated technologies is straight forward and user-friendly."
Hummingbird will be demonstrating Microsoft SharePoint integration at booth
#306/308 at the International Legal Technology Association `06 conference to be
held August 21-24 at Grand Lakes Resort in Orlando, Florida.

Hummingbird Raises the Bar for Proactive Compliance with Release of
LegalKEY(R) Interactive Conflicts Resolution(TM)
New dynamic report review capabilities designed to improve law firm compliance
and capture audit trail of conflicts resolution process
Toronto, Ontario and ILTA '06, Orlando, Florida - August 21, 2006 - Hummingbird
Ltd. (NASDAQ: HUMC, TSX: HUM), a leading global provider of integrated
enterprise content management (ECM) and network connectivity solutions today
announced the release of LegalKEY(R) Interactive Conflicts Resolution(TM), a
Web-based system that enables law firms to collaboratively review and resolve
conflicts before bringing in new business. LegalKEY Interactive Conflicts
Resolution works in conjunction with LegalKEY Conflicts Management(TM), which
provides thorough conflict of interest searches against internal and external
(e.g. OFAC/SDN) source for optimal firm protection.
LegalKEY Interactive Conflicts Resolution was designed to help attorneys resolve
conflicts quickly, interactively and thoroughly. After a conflicts search is
initiated, users can review "hit" reports online and collaboratively work with
each other to resolve conflicts. With firm-defined fields and easy-to-navigate
views, these dynamic reports streamline the conflicts resolution process
significantly and improve the turn-around time for beginning billable work.
Further, risk management features capture the entire user thread involved in
resolving each hit and automatically declare the entire conflict resolution
related to each client/matter as a record in the matter file once approved.
"We understand the challenges law firms face in balancing the need to begin
billable work with risk mitigation. Interactive Conflicts Resolution not only
streamlines the conflicts review process, but also provides a complete audit
trail and record of the resolution process," said Yuri Frayman, Vice President,
Legal Business Solutions, Hummingbird Ltd. "It is yet another advancement in our
continuing commitment to provide our law firm customers with leading edge
proactive compliance capabilities."

Hall, Render, Killian, Heath & Lyman Switches to Hummingbird Enterprise(TM)
for Legal for Matter-Centric Document Lifecycle Management
Migration is first phase of shift to matter lifecycle approach enabled by
Hummingbird Enterprise(TM) for Legal
Toronto, Ontario and ILTA '06, Orlando, Florida - August 22, 2006 - Hummingbird
Ltd. (NASDAQ: HUMC, TSX: HUM), a leading global provider of integrated
enterprise content management (ECM) and network connectivity solutions, today
announced that Hall, Render, Killian, Heath & Lyman P.C., recognized as one of
the preeminent health law firms in the United States, has successfully completed
deployment of Hummingbird Enterprise(TM) DM (DM), marking the completion of the
first phase of the firm's switch from its previous document management vendor to
Hummingbird's centralized proactive compliance system for managing client
information throughout the matter lifecycle.
With the implementation of DM, the core repository for the firm's work in
process, Hall Render can now manage client/matter information from matter
inception through to final disposition. Hummingbird partner, Onward
Technologies, a full-service IT solutions provider to law firms and enterprise
professionals, worked in conjunction with the Hall Render IT team to oversee the
design and implementation of the conversion process.
"Hummingbird Enterprise DM represents a major component of the firm's overall
enterprise information architecture. Moving from a stand-alone document
management system to a comprehensive proactive compliance platform will allow us
to leverage existing technology investments and integrate with emerging
technologies," said Jason Barkes, Director of Information Technology at Hall
Render.
The combination of Hummingbird Enterprise DM, LegalKEY(R) product suite and
Microsoft Exchange Server creates a matter-centric environment for managing
client information which was a key factor in Hall Render's decision to switch
from their previous document management provider to Hummingbird early this year.
"As Hall Render considered its forward-looking plans for information management,
it became increasingly clear that only Hummingbird could offer a proven,
end-to-end solution," said Matt Dell, Vice President, Business Development,
Onward Technologies. "Furthermore, the firm appreciated Hummingbird's
flexibility and pricing that allows users to utilize whatever interface works
best for them, rather than being forced to purchase multiple licenses for
various interfaces."
"As was the case with Hall Render, more and more law firms are recognizing the
need for a coherent and comprehensive system for collecting, storing and
managing client information without sacrificing ease-of-use or productivity,"
explained Yuri Frayman, Vice President, Legal Business Solutions, Hummingbird
Ltd. "We are extremely pleased to be their provider of choice and are excited to
work with them every step of the way as they continue to move toward a
centralized technology framework for managing client/matter information."
Hummingbird will demonstrate Hummingbird Enterprise(TM) for Legal including the
LegalKEY product suite at booth #306/308 at the International Legal Technology
Association `06 conference to be held August 21-24 at Grand Lakes Resort in
Orlando, Florida.

In order to sell and implement LegalKEY applications, partners must complete a

expected to be by the end of 2006.
"Hummingbird's LegalKEY Practice Management solutions comprise exactly the tools
our Legal customers want in order to increase productivity and compliance," said
Bryce Ostenson, CEO at ADV Document Systems. "We are pleased to be included in
their partner program and consider it a key to our future success."
"DocMan is excited and honored to be selected by Hummingbird to extend our
partnership and become a certified partner for LegalKEY products and services,"
said Michael Pray, President, DocMan. "Just as LegalKEY has been a strategic
direction for Hummingbird, it is now a strategic direction for DocMan. We are
building a team of trained and certified LegalKEY Professional Services
resources who have practice support experience and can draw upon DocMan's depth
of knowledge from 12-plus years in the legal industry making this a win for
everyone, especially our clients."
"EIM International is honored to be a part of the initial LegalKEY partner
program," said Peter Lieber, Vice President, EIM International. "Our mission as
long-time Hummingbird partners has always been to provide our clients with the
best technology, helping firms generate business advantage while reducing their
administrative and financial overhead. We believe that ability to offer LegalKEY
proactive compliance systems is a critical component of the services we offer to
our clients, allowing us to provide true matter lifecycle solutions for today's
legal marketplace."
"Matrix Logic is pleased to be a reseller of LegalKEY Practice Support
Solutions," said Stephen Page, President of Matrix Logic Corporation. "A
long-time integrator of Hummingbird's document and records management offerings,
Matrix Logic will bring the LegalKEY solution to the medium and small law firm

intends to certify additional technology providers who have a proven record of
supplying law firms with automated and intelligent solutions for capturing and
managing client data and who will represent Hummingbird products exclusively.
