In terms of WinFS what is the integration strategy with Sharepoint technologies? It seems to me that there are many advantages of using WinFS as a storage technology but I do not really understand the reengineering efforts for all other complementary products in order to support it.

This has to do with customers investing into a technology that will change again in a couple of years and put them in a repurchase path in order to complete the software stack.

Thanks for the post!

Concerning WinFS support, we do talk with the WinFS team about what it would take to host SharePoint in the future, and we may well have those discussions again, once they and we have finished shipping our current releases.

If we did move in this direction, I don't believe the transition for customers would be problematic though. WinFS provides its capabilities on top of a SQL-based core, which is what SharePoint is already built on. If we were to move over to running on top of WinFS instead of directly on top of SQL, we should be able to provide a seamless transition for customers. For example, we could choose to use WinFS primarily as a storage and alternate programmability layer initially, while maintaining our own UI conventions and programmability within the SharePoint products themselves. If we did this, then people who wanted to take advantage of the WinFS sematics could do so without disrupting the business logic that is contained within SharePoint. Those who wanted to continue to write directly to the SharePoint object model could do so as well, and these two methods would be consistent with each other.

It's hard to say more without the teams having investigated what a plan would look like in detail. I don't think it would put customers in a "repurchase path", as you phrased it.

Hello, I've been working with collaboration tools for a year and a half, and also with Groove before Microsoft bought it.

I think that SharePoint Collaboration Products and Technologies have been improved a lot since the first version, 2001.
But also Groove has great features like really Offline Collaboration and some other really cool stuff. Im not sure what is going to be the Msft move but I really hope you take advantages of what is Groove and the power that it offers for the Collaboration World...

Thanks for the Blog...

Hello Luis,
Yes, we do intend to take advantage of Groove connections to SharePoint in the next release. You might want to take a look at Marc Olson's blog on the topic: http://blogs.msdn.com/marco/archive/2005/11/10.aspx

You'll likely see even more connections between Groove and SharePoint in subsequent releases, since we think Groove is a great complement to SharePoint.

Analysts such as Gartner, Forrester and AMR consider that "intelligent search" driven by text analytics will be the next step in "rich access" portal/search technologies and will provide information workers with tools to bridge the gap between "search and business intelligence".

The Global Public Health Intelligence Network (World Health Organization and Health Canada) runs on a Sharepoint portal integrating advanced early detection and business intelligence text analytics by Nstein.

It will be interesting to see if the new capabilities of "rich access" within Sharepoint (or Vista for that matter) will incorporate pre-built automated concept and entity extraction and other advanced text analytics applications for "deeper and richer" search.

What about collaboration with mobile devices? I have been looking for information but i have'nt found any about offline collaboration with mobile devices. I think that it would be a great feature.

The comments I have read so far on SharePoint indicate it is a tool for collaboration and sharing within an organisation or enterprise. Is there any strategy for SharePoint to be used as an information sharing tool with external business partners?

re: SharePoint's Role in Microsoft's Collaboration Strategy

LLiu — Fri, 21 Jul 2006 09:50:31 GMT

Sergio, WSS V3 has a page rendering feature that's been designed to work well with mobile devices.

Mick, we've made significant improvements in how WSS V3 and MOSS 2007 can be implemented in an extranet/B2B scenario. We've also improved integration with Groove, which provides an alternative method (that's offline capable) of information sharing and collaboration with your business partners yet still enables the documents in Groove to be synchronized with the documents on a SharePoint site.

is it better to use .aspx(asp.net 2.0 web app as subfolder) directly in to
sharepoint 2007 beta or creating webparts in asp.net2.0 and use is the best,
what are the pros/cons and how it is related to WCF,Atlas in the future.

any direction would be much more helpful

SharePoint on mobile devices

Derek Douglas — Thu, 01 Mar 2007 01:28:20 GMT

Hi.

I really like how one can use the following URL syntax for accessing SharePoint content on a mobile device:

• http://URL/m/

• http://URL/_layouts/mobile/default.aspx

Was any thought given to interrogating the browser user-agent directly and automatically routing to a mobile version of the page (if one was available)?

This is becoming a big deal for my users, as workflow e-mails are being generated that contains links not to the mobile friendly pages, but to the "desktop browser" pages, for example. Also, when sharing team site information, it is up to the person sending the e-mail to remember to provide an URL with the /m appended.

I think it would be a great framework feature if SharePoint 2007 would extend its browser compatibility to recognize mobile browsers requesting pages and redirect accordingly.
