[stw]

At the SharePoint 2010 Summit @ AIIM Expo, Eric Swift (@eswift), General Manager of SharePoint Marketing announced that Microsoft with be shipping the CMIS Connector for SharePoint as part of the SharePoint Administrator Toolkit by the end of June 2010.  The CMIS Connector for SharePoint provides a CMIS (Content Management Interoperability Services)interface over the top of SharePoint as well as a CMIS consumer Web Part that can be used to display content from other CMIS enabled repositories.

It seems that Microsoft wasn't able to deliver the CMIS-connector intime. We're waiting for it and are very curious to check how well OpenWorkdesk will work against Sharepoint 2010 via CMIS.

The Sharepoint Administration Toolkit can be downloaded from the official Microsoft webpage here from now on.

On this page they also announced the CMIS features of the toolkit:

The Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) connector for SharePoint Server 2010 enables SharePoint users to interact with content stored in any repository that has implemented the CMIS standard, as well as making SharePoint 2010 content available to any application that has implemented the CMIS standard.

The CMIS connector for SharePoint Server 2010 includes two features:

• The Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) Consumer Web Part, which can be added to any SharePoint page. This Web Part displays and lets users interact with the contents of any CMIS repository.


• The Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) Producer, which allows applications to interact with SharePoint lists and document libraries programmatically by means of the interfaces defined in the CMIS standard.
