There"s been some buzz about the Community Kit for SharePoint during the past few days, but it"s not the only exciting and useful SharePoint oriented shared source project on CodePlex. The SharePoint Governance, SharePoint Features, and SharePoint Learning Kit projects are definitely also worth a good look.
Now, a couple of SharePoint MVPs, Andrew Connell and Spencer Harbar, who are well known within the community for their expertise in the web content management capabilities of MCMS 2002 and MOSS 2007, have accepted the responsibility for adopting and enhancing the WCM field controls, web parts, and utilities donated by the Microsoft SharePoint product group and for growing the community of volunteers, who will help create even more shared source WCM components in the future.
Their SharePoint WCM projects and the currently available components are listed below:
SharePoint 2007 WCM Field Controls
A collection of sample Field Controls for use within Publishing Sites built using Office SharePoint Server 2007"s Web Content Management features.
- MultimediaFieldControl: Custom field type and control allowing content authors to specify a URL, width and height of a media file (SWF, PDF, WMV, MPEG, AVI, MPG, MOV) and renders the display of the control with the appropriate ActiveX control markup.
