Outline for presentation to the MS SharePoint and CMS development teams
Here's my draft outline for the presentation that I plan on giving to the MS SharePoint and CMS development teams on Monday. Questions, comments or suggestions? I'll post a recap of the presentation next week.
Business Case
Consistent message
"Coolness" factor
Localized administration
Implemented locally
Why SPS?
Project was initially attempted in CMS
Events, News, Image Libraries, etc
Site Provisioning
Light work flow
WSS Object Model
Custom Templates
Development of custom lists
Ghosted pages that are locked down
Difficult without a CAML Editor
Schema validation for ONET/Schema files
Better use of base types for lists (ie IMGLIB)
Theme Management
Dramatic page changes
Color changes specific to a theme
Content remains the same
Power of ghosted pages
Extending Site Definitions for existing sites (adding pages)
Sharing common resources (pages and list files)
Externalize Control HTML
Views vs Server Controls
Provide multiple views for a specific control
DEMO
WSS Search
Redirect from DispForm.aspx
Redirect from AllItems.aspx
Syndicated Content
Make SearchResults.aspx themed
Unable to ghost SearchResults.aspx
Administration
Prevent access to certain pages / features
User that is responsible for a site isn’t the SiteOwner
List level access
Suspend Impersonation saves the day
CustomJSUrl is a great
Permissions vs. Feature access
Site property management
Don’t show options that aren’t permitted
DEMO
In Line Edit – ala CMS
Edit changes within the display page
Preview content changes
Access consistent toolbar with CSS styles
Friendly Data Input Fields
Created Url Selector
Created Picture Selector
Text box for Url entry difficult for some users
Syndicated Content
Centrally managed content
Available to all sites
Cannot be edited locally
Needs to be dynamic
Allow for multiple options
DEMO
Site Creation
Sites have to be complete
Pre populate lists (Events, News, etc)
Custom NAnt tasks for post create process
Public facing ("friendly") Url
ExecuteUrl didn’t work from SelfServiceCreate
DEMO
Data Access Layer
Didn’t work directly with SPLists
Created container objects for OO approach to list and list access
Create SPListUtility class
Test Harness for Lists
Why not implement DataSet approach?
Better error messages
Collection classes don’t seem to follow best practices
DEMO
Development Environment
VPC – Slower but absolutely essential
NAnt scripts for developer efficiency
Giving developers Admin rights was problematic
Continuous Integration
CruiseControl.NET
SPS environment on build server
Smoke Test Site Templates
Great for ONET/module changes
Promotion
NAnt scripts for promoting templates and code
NAnt tasks for automating site creation for testing
DEMO
Opportunities
Events on lists (Delegates)
Lack of content management
Image upload
Picture size and quality
Lack of object model for recurring events
Can’t evaluate recurrence patterns
Case sensitive url’s when used as keys
Project Quotes
"This is great. Can you make it work like CMS?"
"I think I hosed the ONET."
"You haven’t done anything that breaks our warranty have you?"
"This is completely upgradeable, right?"
"Why does it tease me with options I can’t complete?"
"Is this SharePoint or CMS?"
This.EOF

Extend Microsoft Office and Windows SharePoint with Advanced Publishing Power!
Hyper.Net, the content accelerator for the Microsoft .Net infrastructure, offers tight integration with Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001/2003, Windows Sharepoint Services and Microsoft Content Management Server 2002. The integration allows companies to quickly transform oceans of Office documents managed in SharePoint directly into fine-grained hypertext web content. This removes solution limitations created by the “posted document” and “lump of HTML” approaches that are obstacles to creating more advanced business solutions.
By removing these limitations, companies can leverage SharePoint Portal Server as the foundation for creating a variety of advanced business solutions. New possibilities include Quality Management, Policy & Procedure, and Regulatory Compliance solutions, and integration with any new or existing Web site that has complex, content-intensive or high-quality content requirements.
That means you can quickly implement powerful solutions for your enterprise that leverage the latest web standards, including XML and web services, syndication and personalization. Without the project time typically wasted struggling with posted documents, without the complexity of integrating with your content store, and without running a marathon.
The combined solution is based on leading standard software products, providing advanced document/-content management, content xml automation capabilities and integration to MS Office.

Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services technology
Document libraries are collections of files that you can share with team members on a Web based on Windows SharePoint Services. For example, you can create a library of common documents for a project, and team members can use their Web browsers to find the files, read them, and make comments. Users with Microsoft Office 2003 can check out and edit the files as if they resided on a local or network drive.
By default, your team Web site comes with a built-in document library named Shared Documents, which is listed on the Quick Launch bar as well as on the Documents and Lists page."
