1) Slide was there long before there even was the JSR170 or Jackrabbit, so it can hardly rely on it 2) You do not actually *use* JSR170 but at most expose it as an API to the programmer 3) I do not think there is something like a master plan concerning CMS architecture at Apache > Just curious, why do you recommend against using the server Slide API.

It is not because it is proprietary. You could easily put something like an abstraction wrapper around it or use any form of data access ojects. The reason is that it is pretty hard and error prone to program to the Server API. So, do not program to it if you do not have to.
