We had another useful RSuite User Group Online meeting last week, so here's a quick synopsis for those who missed it.

What’s the RSuite User Group?

If you’re not aware, the RSuite User Group (RSUG) is a community of front-line users, IT staff, executive management, and industry consultants with a shared interest in RSuite.

RSUG meetings are open to active RSuite clients, selected partners, and consultants working with active RSuite clients.  This group meets online every other month to discuss new developments, product enhancements, and questions related to our technology.

New RSuite LinkedIn Group

One of the announcements in yesterday’s meeting regarded the creation of the new RSuite User Group LinkedIn Group.  If you are a member of the RSuite Community, we welcome you to join by clicking the button below:

RSuite 5.3 Preview

Lisa Bos, Corporate EVP of Content Management Software, next provided a presentation of what’s “On Deck” for RSuite – version 5.3. A key feature of 5.3 is the incorporation of Semantics, which leads to better metadata/data management and ultimately better content management.

Lisa gave a lesson on the basics of semantics, including foundational information regarding concepts such as triples, graphs, and taxonomies, as well as some of the benefits of semantics for publishing.

Other key features of 5.3 will include:

• Powerful new possibilities for linking data
• Means for managing “unmanaged” data
• A new and vastly improved Admin user interface

RSuite clients and partners interested in learning more about RSuite 5.3 can log a ticket or start a forum on the RSuite Community Site.

A recording of the session is available for members of the RSuite Community.  Contact dturner@orbistechnologies.com if you are interested.
