Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS)

CMIS is a new standard that uses Web services and Web 2.0 interfaces to enable information sharing across content management repositories from different vendors.

According to TechWorld, this standard will be finalized by early 2010.

Hopefully, we'll be able to enjoy a better integrated ecosystem in the near future. It has really been a nightmare trying to integrate contents from different vendors' CMS.





Something caught my attention when I read the Membership page. LifeRay is not one of the participant; while Sun has one. Hmm... I'm surprised LifeRay has not sent anyone to participate in this open standard.



By the way, you can see which vendor is active from here.
