1. A method for providing a lifecycle for information in a virtual content repository (VCR), comprising:
- integrating a plurality of repositories into the VCR so that individual repositories appear and behave as a single repository to an application;
storing the information in the VCR so that the information is accessible through a logical namespace that encompasses the plurality of repositories; and
transitioning the information through a set of states according to a lifecycle definition;
wherein the information includes at least one of content and schema information.
