Day Software announced that the industry expert group has placed in public review the specification request for JSR 170. JSR 170, which has been developed according to the Java Community Process (JCP), is designed to improve the interoperability between content repositories and applications, allowing developers to work with a homogenous API for all content repositories. The JSR 170 standard will help companies manage content across the large-scale enterprise. In addition to Day, Apache, IBM, SAP, BEA Systems and Oracle all serve as members of expert group for JSR 170. Other industry participants include, Documentum Inc., Filenet Corp., and Vignette. The standard is now available for public review. The public review closes on July 19, 2004. www.jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/review/jsr170/, www.day.com
