There are also lots of other Microsoft people here pumping SharePoint. So they were at least aware of AIIM being held at the same time as the SharePoint conference. I second your comments; MicroSoft does not seem to be more than peripherally aware of RM issues. In a presentation supposedly aimed at RM people they spent more time talking about the ability of SharePoint to search for people as well as documents than they spent talking about the RM capabilities of SharePoint. And for what it's worth, within the first hour of being here I must have heard half a dozen people say that they would be implementing a Tier-one solution (Documentum, Livelink) for Records or Content management and using SharePoint for the user interface. Given SharePoint's roots as a portal I think this will be the preferred solution. D. Greg;

I plan on attending those sessions and will blog about them I'm sure. I've had some interesting "Microsoft Meets RM" moments which I'll blog about shortly. As for KM applications, nothing to date about case-based reasoning but a lot about collaboration. I'm sure a smart developer out there could bolt on a CBR tool to SharePoint, especially if the tool is used widely in an organization to make collaborative decisions. Let's definitely grab a coffee when I'm back. All the best. G. Thanks Pankaj,

So, did Microsoft present any live implementations in the area of Records Management? Or attempting to meet some sort of compliance. I know Moss is DOD 5015 compliant, was there any mention of implementations specifically focussed for complaince? Knowledge Management is another area which I am curious to find out more about using MOSS. Usage of any advanced techniques like Case-based reasoning. I am guessing the focus was mostly on Collaboration. I would love to meet with you and learn from your experience at the conference, once you are back. Good luck and have a safe trip back. -Pankaj.
