In delving further into the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 it came to me that Sharepoint could badly need the Dynamics CRM development model of custom entities as it would allow to create DB based transactional type of applications at which Sharepoint isn't ideally suited.

MOSS is a platform, everybody knows it by now.

Lately I came to think that to be a "Total Sharepoint Consultant" one has to know so many things besides knowing Sharepoint (Install, Config, Dev, WebDev, Admin):

• Admin (Windows, SQL Server, AD, IIS, DNS, Firewalls, Security, SSO)
• Dev (.NET -VSTO, Office OMs like Excel, Outlook, Infopath)
• Web (ASP.NET, CSS, Javascript, Ajax, Silverlight)
• Tecnologies (RDBMS, Business Intelligence)
• Domain (Document/Records Management, Search)
• Other Products (Exchange, CRM) for integration

In' sure I forgot a few, but to be average knowledgeable on all these, 8-10 years experience are needed.

One of the things I feed Sharepoint is missing out is to have cababilities to nately generate documents from a List Item. OK, stuff can get exported into Excel. Often I get asked why a list item cannot be seen as an Infopath or Word form or even as a XPS-PDF-OneNote document. I hope it will get added somehow,  eventually.

from http://reddevnews.com/news/article.aspx?editorialsid=9732

"One attendee asked whether the Outlook Web Access (OWA) administration tool would ever be integrated with SharePoint Server. Saad disclosed that Microsoft intends to merge the two.

"We want to make it so that you only have a single place to go to get all the Web information," she said. "Our long-term goal is having a single point of access for everything on the Web." Much of OWA would become Web parts, she added."
