The Future of WCM - CM Forum Belgium

I was invited to speak at the CM Forum in Brussels on the Future of WCM. I think it is a very broad topic and it is hard to make specific predictions, so it was tricky to come up with something meaningful.

Here is what I came up with. Feedback (as always) very welcome.

According to my predictions (or wishes) in this presentation the Future is...

OPEN.
CLOUDY.
BUSINESS.
CONTEXT.
AGILE.
MOBILE.

Is your WCM future proof?

CRX 2.1 Released

I'm proud and excited to see Day CRX 2.1 generally available. This first standalone release of our enterprise content repository product implementing the new JCR 2 (JSR 283) standard, and enabled for the upcoming CMIS standard, is a milestone in Day Software content technology and product strategy. The first release of CRX 2 technology, CRX 2.0 engineering controlled release embedded in our CQ 5.3 product, has been shipping already since January 2010.

Download the free developer edition of CRX for all your evaluation, development, and testing needs. Watch the product screencast on www.day.com/crx. Follow the First Steps with CRX guide to web application development on CRX platform. You will discover the product features in the matter of minutes.

Our enterprise customers and partners can download CRX from DayCare support platform. If you are interested in the enterprise license, contact our regional office. For smaller projects developed using the CRX developer edition, which need to go into production, you can order our competitively priced CRX ONE edition. Projects based on Apache Jackrabbit can also benefit from CRX enterprise or ONE edition's commercial offering & support thanks to drop-in compatibility with CRX.

This release is the result of industry cooperation in defining the JCR 2 and CMIS standars, open source community providing the reference implementation of JCR and other modules used in CRX, and our customers, partners, and developer edition users providing us with valuable feedback and challenging enhancements requests. I'd like to thank you for this great cooperation on behalf of Day's highly motivated and qualified delivery team, who have made every effort to ensure it is a great product release.

For more information, see Release Notes and product online documentation at docs.day.com, and knowledge base articles.

Also, do not miss the upcoming events related to CRX 2.1:

Mark the date for the CRX 2.1 Launch Webinars on Thursday, May 6th, 2010: for Europe at 11 a.m. CEST and for US at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET.
Participate in Day's IT Agility Cup development competition for developers of composite content applications, with categories including Innovative JCR Application, Innovative CMIS Application, and Innovative Mobile Application.

JCRfying a CMIS repository

The capability to expose a Java content repository through CMIS has been around for a while (see for example Day's announcement of a publicly available CMIS server). On the other hand, Apache Jackrabbit developer Michael Duerig has committed some code to the Jackrabbit sandbox that makes available a CMIS repository through JCR. Essentially, this allows you to connect to a CMIS repository and browse it with the JSR-170/283 API.

Being in the sandbox, this is for the adventurous to try by themselves. But if you want to: check out https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/sandbox/jackrabbit-spi2cmis/. You will need to have Apache Chemistry and Apache Jackrabbit installed (i.e. available in the local mvn repository) in order to build. Michael has put together some instructions in a README.

To understand how to use the code have a look at the test cases. In particular, in AbstractTestCase.java there are test setups for the public CMIS repositories of Day, Alfresco and Nuxeo.

Welcome OpenCMIS! Building Chemistry...

Today is a great day for Apache Chemistry: the OpenCMIS community just added their very exciting code base. And more importantly: the OpenCMIS community joined the Chemistry community.

The contribution consists of a general purpose java client that already seems very well architected and already very mature in its code base, granted that CMIS is not even released as a 1.0 yet. This will definitely help to advance the efforts of Chemistry both on the Server and on the Client. I am convinced that all the lessons learned from OpenCMIS will be greatly appreciated by the Chemistry community and will have a very positive impact on the joint code base.

From an Apache community standpoint I think it is very noteworthy that the list of contributors of OpenCMIS includes people from various companies, so I would like to take this opportunity to welcome the following people into the Chemistry community and thank them for their outstanding achievement.

David Caruana (Alfresco) (existing Chemistry PMC member)
David Ward (Alfresco)
Florian Müller (Open Text)
Jens Hübel (Open Text)
Martin Hermes (SAP)
Paul Goetz (SAP)
Stephan Klevenz (SAP)

Since I had the pleasure to work with most of them before I am really looking forward to our joint work in Chemistry as a community open source project.
