Is there an international content management "community?" Well, 30 CMS experts from around the globe (including from CMS Watch) think so. They have formed a new professional membership association, "CM Professionals." CMPros is focused on peer-based interaction to codify best practices. It will hold its first summit later this Autumn in conjunction with the Gilbane Conference in Boston, USA. CMPros is powered solely by volunteers, so you can understand if its website and mission statement still need a bit of tuning. But the important thing is this: the CMS industry will soon celebrate its 10th birthday, and there are a lot of professionals around the world with deep content management experience; this organization allows those practitioners to share concepts and skills in environments devoid of vendor marketing hype, so that they can take back best practices to apply within their own organizations. Anyone can join. You should, today...

"Microsoft tells you it's wonderful, competitors tell you it's awful, and there's not a lot in between. The Real Story Group's SharePoint Research, does an excellent job of covering the 'in-between.' The authors have done an outstanding job in documenting what SharePoint is, in thinking about how and where it can be used effectively, and in giving prescriptive guidance to organizations that are considering SharePoint -- both to embrace the good, and to avoid the bad."
