title: TOGAF 9.1 Content Meta Model
body: <p>Apologies if my question is unclear/so stupid ..but please help me to resolve this confusion</p>
  
  <p>I am reading TOGAF V9.1 <a href="http://pubs.opengroup.org/architecture/togaf9-doc/arch/Figures/34_contentfwk8.png" rel="nofollow">Content Meta Model</a> and would like to know below</p>
  
  <p>1) I understand, every step of TOGAF adds and consumes content and it needs a content repository, but why a Content Framework is needed?</p>
  
  <p>2) A Framework I believe is supposed to have a method to manipulate the input and produce an output, but this Content Framework appears to be prescribing just a static relationship between entities/artifacts and nothing else?</p>
  
  <p>3) Does it exist only to help any Content repository Tools to classify the Content, possibly by folder hierarchies (for instance) like below? If yes how does just a prescribed static classification adds value, as the architect can relate the artifacts produced from each step , even if this Content Meta Model classification does not exist?</p>
  
  <p>please help</p>
  
  <p><strong>Example Content repository hierarchy</strong></p>
  
  <p>Organization</p>
  
  <p>->Motivation extension</p>
  
  <p>--->Driver</p>
  
  <p>--->Goal</p>
  
  <p>--->Objective</p>
  
  <p>->Governance extension</p>

  <p>Thanks,
