Can I access the content of a DocuShare repository using the CMIS protocol?

CMIS is a recently-released standard to access ECM repositories. It is already usable with Alfresco and Nuxeo, and many other ECM vendors are implementing it, but I can't find any information for DocuShare.

Thanks!

Apparently yes, Xerox DocuShare (at least 6.6.1) supports CMIS.

Reference: I have found this presentation file written by Xerox which contains this graph:

After talking with a DocuShare expert, it appears that Xerox Mobile Client for DocuShare is a CMIS client, so Mobile Client Connecter seems to be a DocuShare-to-CMIS gateway.

The CMIS URL has a pattern like this http://yourserver/<something>/ds_mobile_connector/atom, with notably the 2 following patterns seen in the wild:

• http://yourserver/docushare/ds_mobile_connector/atom
• http://yourserver/documents/ds_mobile_connector/atom

Apparently, the CMIS features:

• does not exist in all versions of DocuShare (meaning not on old versions I guess),
• is off by default and has to be enabled manually.
