Content Management and RSS

Here's a synopsis about the intersection of RSS and large (traditional) content management firms.
In my view, these firms are struggling because of many factors such as Weblog tools, open-source CMS's, RSS, and the general trend to use loosely-coupled services to solve complex content management problems. I believe the days of monolithic content management systems are over - replacing them will be federations of services not provided by any single vendor, but seamlessly integrated with business process and workflow.
