But I do applaud Big Windows for the screen blip it calls managed metadata services. That's one tiny leap of faith for Microsoft
Create a connection to the Managed Metadata Service. You can do this by following these instructions http://www.sharepointninja.com/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?List=1b1adaf0%2Dd914%2D4578%2D9613%2Df33ce22c41fe&ID=44&Web=9a7fbd73%2D9558%2D4b79%2D80c1%2D194bde406be0 (replacing the User Profile Service with Managed Metadata Service in the instructions) 3. After you have created a connection, go ahead and create a Managed Metadata Service Application on the consuming farm. Therefore, there will be two instances of the Managed Metadata Service (one running on the consuming farm and one connection to the publishing farm). 4
The MMS allows you to share content types across site collections and web applications in SharePoint 2013 and Office 365’s SharePoint Online . The managed metadata service (MMS) enables you to publish a term store for your organization as well as an optional configuration for content types to use a managed metadata connection. Overview of the Managed Metadata Service Application An extremely useful capability of the managed metadata service is that it can allow records managers within your organization to administer and update metadata over time without the need to provide them with SharePoint farm administration permissions
Custom content types can be housed in a content type hub that is defined in the managed metadata service instance and then made available to other site collections that are part of web applications associated with that managed metadata service instance
Yes, that's another plug for MMS (a.k.a. "managed metadata services")
What I tell the headhunter I'll tell you: MMS or Managed Metadata Services is the new lingua franca of information management practices, It's also the precursor to a whole host of roles and responsibilities around how organizations not only document what they do but do according to how well they document

Tag the hell out of them through managed metadata services. Again, don't lump individual builds in with entire slide decks
This is critical because it ties their solution into the SharePoint Managed Metadata Service and Content Type Hub Service instead of tying it to the repository through web parts
