Yes, Explorer is still supported.

No, there is no support for those other than discussions on content items. They could all be added via custom views however.

Thanks,
Mike

Yes, Explorer is still supported.

Is there a tendency to issue a new version of Alfresco Explorer as the preceding version did not enhance the explorer any more?

on the other hand, could we consider Alfresco Share as  full replacement to alfresco Explorer?

Thanks in advance

Each release of Alfresco has a new version of Alfresco Share and Alfresco Explorer.     I'd be very surprised if there were no changes to either interface.

No Share is not a "full" replacement.    I think its safe to say that "most" of the functionality is available in both, but for example AVM based Authoring environment is only in Explorer.     And equally there are Share only things like the DOD5015 modules.

Sorry Mike,  I mean the "Node Browser".   Which is in Explorer only …. isn't it?

Correct: there isn't an "out of the box one", but there is one on Will's Share Extras project page    http://code.google.com/p/share-extras/
