SharePoint’s CMIS Connector

Today, the General Manager of SharePoint Marketing announced that Microsoft will be shipping a Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) connector for SharePoint 2010. This will allow for easier communication between large Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems that a company might have. Working with IBM, EMC, Alfresco, OpenText, SAP, and Oracle, this is a long time coming since it was announced back in 2008. Inclusion of this connector may accelerate the adoption of SP2010 which looks like a good improvement over 2007.
