Did you pay for Lotus Traveler?

OK, the subject is false... Lotus Traveler is a free product for Lotus Domino Servers. But there is a small detail to be evaluated.

You are not using express licensing. You have several server PVU licenses for your servers and you want to install a seperate Traveler Server.

Since Traveler server code will be installed on top of Lotus Domino Server, now the question comes in: Do I need an additional Domino Server PVUs for this seperate server?

Launching Lotus Symphony 3.0 inside Lotus Notes Client?

Using Lotus Symphony 3.0?

When you install Lotus Symphony 3.0 on your computer, there will be an odd situation. There is Lotus Symphony 3.0 installed, but 1.3 inside your Notes client.

If you want to upgrade embedded Symphony 1.3 and use version 3.0 inside your Notes client, you have to use a seperate installation for Symphony. This is called IBM Lotus Symphony 3.0 Add on Pack .

Goodbye my dear: A WAS-Domino implementation will be shutdown...

In 2003, my customer brought me a very tough problem. They were going to need a content management system for their web sites. Content should be generated and modified by different types of users (from inside company and outside agencies).

First we tried to build a Notes database hosted on a dedicated domino server but massive numbers of impressions were kicking response times underground... But we needed Domino, because content editors were wide-spread inside and outside company. Replication and data flexibility were indispensable.

XPages and the future of Domino Server...

Several weeks ago Volker Weber (one of the most popular and divergent bloggers in the community) blogged about XPages and its future.

Vowe mentions about a speculation of building WAS implementation about XPages. It reminded me a constant argument about 'thinking/marketing/selling Domino server as an application development environment'. BTW the argument is so old that Ed Brill blogged in 2003: "Another conspiracy element addressed" :)
