The document discusses new features in EPiServer CMS7, particularly the EPiServer Find module. It notes that Find allows non-hierarchical retrieval of content using ElasticSearch, providing more flexible ways to display and query content beyond traditional page hierarchies. It also recommends the PowerSlice module as an example of using Find's querying capabilities to build non-hierarchical views of content. The document suggests that developers could code examples using Find at a future session.
