New Design and Build Guide for MOSS 2007

This blog posting applies to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.

This is a topic near and dear to my heart.  I've spent many hours helping customers plan and execute a wide range of customizations for MOSS 2007. 

Now, the ECM Team (Enterprise Content Management) has published an exhaustive paper on these topics.  At least, I was exhausted reading it!  No, really, it's a great guide and covers so many areas that normally don't even get touched on.
