Great post you should read!

Chris Whisonant |   | Tags:  lotus notes 2009 | Comments (1)  |  Visits (722)
Roland Reddekop has posted a great entry titled Mainstreaming Lotus Notes in 2009. It is well worth your read! I will leave you with his two steps that we should leave with and do now!

Strategy A.
There needs to be more articles put out in mainstream publications that clearly and succinctly bring out the feature/benefits of Notes Domino. Use of graphics, interviews, case study examples, and convincing arguments need to communicate the essential benefits of Notes. Emphasize that, as the world has evolved, so has Notes, especially of late. The frequency of these releases needs to be high enough so that the average IT professional will run across 4-6 Lotus articles a year minimum, which itself goes a long ways to demonstrate the legitimacy of the product.

Strategy B. The Lotus community needs to get involved in commenting on these articles in a genuine, non-defensive manner. Rebut the argument not the person. Point out the true benefits you and your org, and your customers have experienced with Notes Domino and let those speak for themselves. Engage the trolls only on the concrete points they offer. Ignore the crude, nonspecific comments which any intelligent reader will bypass anyway.

Thanks for this Roland - we are on the offensive now and we should act like it!

Looks like Sametime 8.0.2 is available

Chris Whisonant |   | Tags:  sametime 8.0.2 | Comments (0)  |  Visits (921)
While I'm blogging about releases, it appears that Sametime 8.0.2 is on Passport Advantage now, so if you've been waiting on 8.0.2 and some of the enhancements, go ahead and get it...

Also, I'm not seeing that the InfoCenter has been updated yet with information, but I think it was just released as I have not seen anyone else talking about it.

Finally, I'm not seeing any downloads for the Connect client, so they may be pushing it out. I knew it was there because a customer actually found it and let me know - so it isn't just available for partners...

In the never-ending Notes 8.0.2 saga...

Chris Whisonant |   | Tags:  cch2 8.0.2 notes client | Comments (0)  |  Visits (973)
Thanks to Alan Lepofsky via twitter, I see that there is now a CCH2 available for Notes 8.0.2. Glad to see that IBM is addressing the (apparently many) issues with the Notes 8.0.2 client in a timely manner.

I'm trying to remember back through the releases since 6.0 and I think I can only remember one or two CCH kits released to address major client issues. But at the same time, there were QMR's released (the 0.x releases) which are now on around a 180 day schedule. So we now are able to get hotfixes in a more timely manner than having to wait 6 months for the next revision.

Also, please note that ND 8.0.2 FP1 should be released in January.

Using BleedYellow to Plan A Lotusphere Session

Chris Whisonant |   | Tags:  planning ls09 session activities lotusphere | Comments (0)  |  Visits (621)
Mitch posted some great details on how we planned our session for Lotusphere 2009. It's a great case study for how Connections can have some real-world applications. Kim Greene and I also planned our other session this way. Mac Guidera also blogged that he used Activities to plan his session.

While we could have done this using other methods, using BleedYellow Activities to get this done was extremely beneficial and helped to keep us on track!
