<h3>
I. Introduction</h3>
This document explains the requirements for the ACS Contents package.
It details the rationale and use cases for this system.
<h3>
II. Vision Statement</h3>
The ACS Contents package provides a centralized repository for application
data. By storing data in a central location, sub-systems/applications can
apply a general function on all content associated with the site. For example,
the Site Wide Search subsystem can take advantage of this facility to query
all data for search keywords. The ACS Contents package also stores
two important attributes of content: format and language. These
attributes provide information useful in determining how to manipulate
and display the content.
<h3>
III. System Overview</h3>
The ACS Contents package just provides a table that stores the content,
format, and language for ACS objects.
