From the Microsoft Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Team Blog:

The ECM Starter Kit updated for B2TR is in the process of being published to MSDN. But in the meantime, just thought I’d post an “unofficial” version.
The samples are pretty much the same as in the Beta 2 kit, but there are a few additions:
Whitepaper: How to Add Activities to SharePoint Designer
Records Management Sample: Sample Barcode Generator
ECM Workflow Activity: FindManager activity
Also, the workflow templates come with some WSP solution package files to help with bundling workflows for deployment on production servers.

I had planned on introducing Elizabeth Gooding, our newest guest blogger, with her initial post, but Elizabeth caught me off guard and already posted twice last week (here and here)! In any case, Elizabeth has a design and consulting company she founded 18 years ago that has been focused ever since on the document design, processing, and delivery needs of financial services companies. Elizabeth is a hands-on CEO who may know more than anyone about technologies and strategies for financial service industry document-oriented applications. Elizabeth brings a new area of important expertise to our blog. Welcome Elizabeth!
Disclosure: I am on her board, but I would still say nice things about her if I wasn’t!

Well, it is a provocative and interesting way to launch a discussion about the changes in the CM market.
Dan Farber reports from DEMO on new products that some might consider Content Management 2.0, and why, from Koral, System One, Serebrum and MindTouch.

For a veteran’s point of view see John Newton’s post on CM 2.0 over on the Content Technology CTO Blog.

With the Boston program complete, we have been getting requests for the deadline for speaking proposals for our Gilbane San Francisco conference April 10-13, 2007. We publish this info at https://gilbane.com/speaker_guidelines.html on the bottom of the page when we have it. The deadline for submitting proposals for Gilbane San Francisco 2007 is January 3, 2007.

More when I’m not on vacation, but obviously this is big news.
