The final results of the survey are at: http://gilbane.com/gilbaneboston_keynote_survey.html. We really appreciate the input from all of you who participated. The winner of the drawing for a free conference pass to a future Gilbane Conference has been notified, so if you contributed, check your email. We'll announce the winner once we receive their permission.

There's still time to add your voice to our survey on Content Globalization.

Thursday's Content Globalization Workflows panel includes speakers from Idiom Technologies, LISA (Localization Industry Standards Association), LinguaLinx, and General Electric.

Topics to be covered include: globalization business drivers, the impact of market consolidation, achieving process management and project management, defining "unified globalization management," and best practices. Hope to see you there!

The survey on the list of questions for our keynote panel on Wednesday is still open, but we have published the results so far at: http://gilbane.com/gilbaneboston_keynote_survey.html.

There are a couple of different ways to calculate the most popular questions based on a combination of the "important", "interesting" and "not interesting" ratings. You can look at the results and come to your own conclusions, but no matter how you do it the popular questions so far are:

• What are the top 3 technologies that must be considered in any content management strategies in the next 12-24 months?
• Are search 'platforms' going to replace CMSs as the primary user entrance to content repositories?
• How will Blog and Wiki tools be used in enterprise content applications? How are they being used today?
• What is the number one advantage, and the number one disadvantage of each of the approaches represented on the panel (ECM suite, CM application, infrastructure CM, hosted CM, open source CM)?
• Are there any breakthrough classification or metadata tagging technologies on the horizon that will significantly impact content management strategies?
• How is widespread adoption of RSS/Atom going to affect content delivery? And what does this mean to enterprise content management or publishing strategies?
• How will the new SharePoint Server's CM capability affect the CM market?

You still have 2 days to cast your vote, and to get to Boston to hear the keynote panel (which is open to all) debate these and other questions.

CM Pros, the Content Management Professionals Association, has their third annual Fall Summit meeting today in Boston at the Westin Copley Hotel in conjunction with Gilbane Boston (which starts tomorrow). If you are in the Boston area it is not too late to get to the Summit and find out what other content management pros are up to.

Just a short reminder that we are looking forward to seeing you at the Gilbane Conference Boston, November 28-30, 2006 at the Westin Copley Place. If you have not signed up yet there is still time to attend the conference, or to join us just to see the exhibits.

NOTE: This is a re-post from our Analyst Blog.

In preparation for our panel on Content Globalization Workflows on Thursday November 30th at our Boston conference, we have created a survey to gauge how organizations are dealing with increasing market demand for localized content.

We hope to see you at this session. But whether you join us or not, contribute to it by answering our survey questions. We'll publish the results in a blog entry after the conference, including the results from our audience survey. Give us your input and you'll be eligible to win a free conference pass for one of our future conferences!

Here is a short URL to the survey you can share with others: http://tinyurl.com/yjy694

Here's what we'd like to know:
1. Which issue is your most pressing business driver for providing localized content to your customers?
2. Who is responsible for purchasing translation software in your organization?
3. What is the most difficult challenge within your localization processes?
4. Do you have one or more content/document management systems in house?
5. Do you have one or more translation management systems in house?
6. If you do not have a translation management system in house, who do you work with to manage your translation processes?
7. If you have both a content/document and a translation management system in house, are they integrated?
8. If the systems are integrated, select the most appropriate description of the integration.

Choose from our list or contribute your own question, and we'll share your ideas with our keynote panel at Gilbane Boston on November 29. Here is a short link to the questions you can share: http://tinyurl.com/uo3f8
