SchemaLogic released its enterprise metadata and taxonomy management platform – SchemaLogic Enterprise 3.0, with additional interface, integration and customization options. SchemaLogic SchemaServer provides an active metadata repository that drives modeling, mapping and synchronization across disparate enterprise systems. Enriching unstructured information through taxonomic metadata, controlled vocabularies and semantic mapping schema leads to information findability and enterprise-level content integration. SchemaLogic Workshop provides business domain experts and technical data architects the ability to model, rationalize and manage the creation, import/export, and synchronization of metadata models and schemas with other applications and systems. Workshop is the user portal into SchemaServer and SchemaLogic Integrator. SchemaLogic Integrator manages the synchronization of metadata to subscribing systems with adaptors. This integration framework provides adapters that communicate directly with subscribing systems, moving reference data, metadata and controlled vocabularies from SchemaServer’s repository. SchemaLogic offers standard adapters for content management, portal, search, categorization, database, XML schema and other enterprise systems. http://www.schemalogic.com
Category: Content management & strategy (Page 268 of 480)
This category includes editorial and news blog posts related to content management and content strategy. For older, long form reports, papers, and research on these topics see our Resources page.
Content management is a broad topic that refers to the management of unstructured or semi-structured content as a standalone system or a component of another system. Varieties of content management systems (CMS) include: web content management (WCM), enterprise content management (ECM), component content management (CCM), and digital asset management (DAM) systems. Content management systems are also now widely marketed as Digital Experience Management (DEM or DXM, DXP), and Customer Experience Management (CEM or CXM) systems or platforms, and may include additional marketing technology functions.
Content strategy topics include information architecture, content and information models, content globalization, and localization.

Passing this along from Don Day, Chair of the OASIS DITA Techical Committee:
The OASIS DITA Technical Committee seeks your input on the list of known requirements/enhancements for upcoming DITA TC activity. Your help in ranking this list (or suggesting additional new requirements) will help the TC prioritize the most urgent issues for upcoming DITA 1.1 design work, and beyond. I have posted a list osf the issues currently known to the TC at this location: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=12814&wg_abbrev=dita
Please assess what you consider to be your top 5 requirements and submit those Issue numbers to the DITA TC via the comment form:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/comments/form.php?wg_abbrev=dita .
If you have a new issue or requirement not included in this list, please enter it as a separate comment via the comment form. We still need your “top 5” from this list, so read it carefully–most of the known hot issues are in there in one way or another, possibly including yours. There is no need to include more than 5 items in your list at this time; all of the 48 items are candidates for work, but we need to know which are MOST critical for initial work going into DITA 1.1.
This review period opens on May 23 2005 and closes end of day on June 6 2005 (2 weeks).
OASIS announced that its members have approved the Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.0 as an OASIS Standard, a status that signifies the highest level of ratification. OpenDocument provides a royalty-free, XML-based file format that covers features required by text, spreadsheets, charts, and graphical documents. OpenDocument provides a single XML schema for text, spreadsheets, charts, and graphical documents. It makes use of existing standards, such as HTML, SVG, XSL, SMIL, XLink, XForms, MathML, and the Dublin Core, wherever possible. OpenDocument has been designed as a package concept, enabling it to be used as a default file format for office applications with no increase in file size or loss of data integrity. Future plans for the OASIS OpenDocument Technical Committee include extending the standard to encompass additional areas of applications and users, as well as adapting it to incorporate ongoing developments in office applications. All those interested in advancing this work, including governments, open source initiatives, educational institutions, and software providers, are encouraged to participate in the Committee. OASIS hosts an open mail list for public comment and the opendocument-dev mailing list for exchanging information on implementing the standard. http://www.oasis-open.org

Siderean Software, Inc. has announced the general availability of its Seamark Navigation Server, a turn-key, enterprise-class navigation capability that permits users to “search the way they think”. Seamark provides IT personnel and information architects the means to pinpoint specific information by integrating various data sources (both structured and unstructured from both inside and outside the enterprise) as a new, dynamic data collection that can be browsed, searched, or queried. It then generates a browsable application that enables users to pinpoint information within that collection. The Web-ready, Seamark-generated application can be used “as is”; refined as necessary for look, feel or function; incorporated into a Web page; or linked to other applications as a Web service. What Seamark does is systematically examine the various data sources to which it is introduced, discovers both the explicit and implicit structure or organization in the data, produces a “metadata” description of its content and characteristics, and then automatically generates a browsable, prototype application based upon that description. Seamark provides interfaces to JDBC, RDF/XML, and RSS. Seamark uses a Web-services model. Client interfaces include RSS, SOAP, and ASP/JSP. It is offered as a standalone platform under Linux, Windows and Solaris. http://www.siderean.com
