The state of Content Management Systems is monolithic: if you're choosing a system based on its UI, this will mandate the web development tools and languages to use, and even the database where your content is stored.

But now a new movement has started towards a more decoupled CMS landscape. Projects like Create and PHPCR spearhead it, giving CMS developers previously-unseen opportunities for cross-project collaboration.

Create is the next generation user interface for content management. Itprovides a fully client-side content editing experience built on tools and standards like RDFa and Backbone.js. With Create, end users can stop filling forms and start communicating with their audience.

PHPCR is the PHP port of the Java Content Repository standard, giving a flexible way for CMS developers to define their content model, and to work with content trees.

This talk will explain how both Create and PHPCR work, and how they can be utilized in Symfony2 development.
