The conversation around standards in the world of ECM has gotten quiet lately, most likely due to the lack that most vendors only want to pay it lip service. Vendors such as Stellent, Filenet, Documentum and Alfresco also avoid talking about creation of industry standards because it may expose deficiencies in how their products are built. If they exercise their right to remain silent, then they can count on enterprise architects not doing any homework and everything can stay status quo
The count of folks exercising their right to remain silent is growing by leaps and bounds
Bob Blakely seems to have stirred up noise in the blogosphere regarding what is an identity metasystem. The likes of Kim Cameron, Paul Madsen, Robin Wilton and others have debated. I wonder if they could stop arguing about bullshit and start arguing more important issues such as getting non-security applications to consume. How about discussing the merits of salesforce.com or your favorite ECM or BPM vendor to consume it
Folks in India are discussing the notion of them writing blogs. I suspect that if someone is stupid enough to outsourcing their blog then they are doomed to fail. Besides, don't folks understand that folks in India speak British English and not American English and to American's reading it, it will be apparent?
Are us enterprise architect types that incompetent?
Yet another blogger who is exercising his right to remain silent
Good to see that Brian Huff is blogging about ECM and Security. I wonder if Billy Cripe, Robin East, Chuck Hollis, Cornelia Davis and others have any additional thoughts?
