Attention content management system shoppers! In Characteristics of an XML CMS (Dr. Macro’s XML Rants Blog), Eliot Kimber outlines “what an XML CMS does (or should do)” and provides a list of “features a repository needs to provide”. Kimber lays out the stuff you need to know—especially if you wok in a technical publications department that aims to manage structured XML documents—BEFORE you select a system. After reading Kimber’s article, you may realize you NEED an XML repository, not a tool that supports XML. There’s a big difference! Warning: This article is very technical.
