That because Microsoft is (still) most relevant on client related stuff. If Microsoft adopts it, it will survive. From that point of view it seems that CMIS is definitely the better choice. Actually I was not considering that - so thank you very much for pointing that out in the Wiki editing.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 04 Feb 2010 11:30:37 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/cmis-jcr-rmi-and-the-like/m-p/239533#M192663 mwildam 2010-02-04T11:30:37Z Re: CMIS, JCR(-RMI) and the like https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/cmis-jcr-rmi-and-the-like/m-p/239534#M192664 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive-quote">CMIS is the way to go for CRUD access to a content repository.&nbsp; Failing that use the Alfresco WebScripts.&nbsp; Failing that use WebServices.</BLOCKQUOTE><SPAN>In reality I don't want to mix a thousands of stuff.
