We currently have CMS2002, and would like to move to the Sharepoint.  We hav
e
software assurance, so the licensing should be covered.  The question is wil
l
our CMS2002 serial number work with Sharepoint, or is there some form of
conversion process?

Hi.

You're product key for MCMS won't work with MOSS, however a seperate key for
MOSS will be provided if you are on SA.

Basically there is a two stage conversion:
1.) Migrate data from the MCMS database to MOSS using the migration tool
which is built in to SharePoint Central Admin
2.) Migrate your existing MCMS ASP.NET application to Page Layouts/Master
Pages in MOSS.

Hello,

As Spencer said, the new licence with the new media have been/will be
sent to you or to the person who manage your licence. We received ours
one month ago.

For more detailled information, you can visit this page :
