Integrating External Document Repositories with SharePoint Server 2007

This article show how to take external repositories (Documentum, Interwoven, etc) and surface them in SharePoint as if they were a document library. This project goes way beyond a few web parts to integrate capabilities such as workflow and custom metadata. There is also a Code Gallery project with the implementation. Although the project is not a full CMIS implementation, it is based on the CMIS specification. Here is a screen shot of an external repository surfaced in SharePoint using Silverlight as the UI.
