Acknowledgement

I dedicate this book to my parents.

This book would not have been possible without the unrelenting support of my wife Rashmi. Working on this book also kept me away from my four-year old daughter Shreya, who often contended with me for using my laptop. My brother Ramesh has been my model of perseverance whenever I needed to keep going in the face of adversity.

I am immensely indebted to the technical reviewers Gaurav Kathuria and Brian Williamson, for the quality of the contents of this book. Both of them provided painstakingly detailed feedback, which helped improve the accuracy and suitability of the text. Gaurav is the author of Web Content Management with Documentum, the book that inspired me to write this one. I have worked with Brian in the past he is a brilliant Documentum architect and a WDK expert.

The entire Packt team working on this book has made the experience of writing my first book a thoroughly pleasant one. I would like to thank Douglas Paterson, Nikhil Bangera, Abhijeet Deobhakta, Patricia Weir, and everyone else who worked on this book behind the scenes.

I thank Armedia for giving me the opportunity to work with Documentum.

I thank my friends who have been exceptionally patient and understanding while I worked on this book. I particularly thank Sumitra Tyagi, Manmohan Singh, and Katie Leland for their unconditional support and encouragement during some personally and professionally challenging time while I worked on this book.

Finally, I thank the members of dm_cram (http://dmcram.org) who confirmed the need for this book.
