I’ve put a blog post about my presentation of EMC’s Momentum 2006 conference over at SharePoint Blogs. It seemed to ‘fit’ there better than at Menori. I had a fascinating time and might have actually stirred some real changes in the world of Enterprise Content Management. Using Documentum with SharePoint was certainly the hot topic at the conference and I seemed to be in the middle of it all with customers of EMC, some implementation partners and senior product manager’s at EMC. Microsoft were clearly loving the attention too.
So my key words to grab people’s attention during my presentation were ‘adoption’, ‘web services’, ‘integration’, ‘user experience’, ‘leverage’, ‘plough’, ’synergies’, ‘realise benefits’, ’significant investment’, ‘path of least resistence’. I think the last one caused most ripples and a few knowing smiles from those people who know that users really love file shares and don’t like document managment.

Anyone discuss EMC’s adoption of the XACML specification?
Not that I was aware of James. Most of the topics were about the upcoming features of ‘D6′, tentatively scheduled for release in Q3 of 2007. Other than that there was huge focus on EMC making some sense of all the companies they’ve acquired over the last 18 months - RSA, etc.- and how they fit into the overall strategy for ECM.
