BEA WebLogic Portal to support JSR-170
At the recently held BEAWorld, Day and BEA announced a partnership to deliver a JSR-170 repository connector for BEA's WebLogic Portal. JSR-170 support will enable BEA WebLogic Portal users to interact with any JSR-170 compliant content management systems. Among these notable is Day’s very own Content Repository Extreme (CRX), but other vendors have indicated future support for the standard. Day has been championing this standard and investing aggressively in engineering around reference implementations. While BEA WebLogic Portal quietly claims to have a CMS-in-the-box, many users have found it quite limiting and this new standard, might make BEA's heretofore proprietary CMS integration (called CM SPI integration) easier and more standards-based.
