Changes between Version 2 and Version 3 of Public/WhatIsCinnamon

v2	v3
10	10	//ECMS// stands for //Enterprise Content Management System//, but this term is not as cleanly defined as a CCMS. Seen as a system category, ECMS stands for systems capable of managing all types of data, structured content just like binaries including huge media content, assign metadata as needed and provide automation and processing interfaces. Seen as an IT strategy, ECMS is the integrated view on enterprise data, providing views across systems and making it transparent to users where data comes from. Cinnamon serves both fields with its open, XML-based metadata model and its strong and flexible interfaces.

12	14	== Cinnamon is an Open Source system
13	15	If you have already evaluated commercial products in the above categories, you surely have found out that vendors charge significant amounts of money for their products. Cinnamon is based on a server platform that is completely free and Open Source, and contains a fully Open Source desktop client. Anybody can use the system within the terms of the applicable Open Source licenses. For professional users, we provide enterprise setups with an extended software edition, maintenance and professional services. There are also further commercial Cinnamon extension modules available, like editor integrations, LDAP connector, content cache and others.
