The wonderful and amazing Ed Brill has announced at the MAC World and on his blog the official release of the IBM Lotus Notes and Domino 8.5 version.
What a great time this is to have the announcement made in this venue with the official version release for the Mac OS X Leopard-powered computers!
If you do not have Ed in your feedreader by now, you really should have him listed…. he is a wealth of information and one of the oldest blogs I follow!
There is a great blog setup to keep you informed of ppl going to Lotusphere as well as other information that you should keep track of… see “My Story” posted there…
I know that it is hard for so many of you to get to Lotusphere this year in light of the economic climate, but there are lots of places that you can wander to keep in the know! also to feel the power of the community… you can also keep tabs on twitter from doing a search #ls09 that is the universal keyword we are all using for our LS tweets…
Have a good one!
The Pacific Northwest ITS would like to personally invite you to join us… for the Bus ride trek to the amusement park on Wednesday night. The team that will be there will meet at the Dolphin Fountain as usual @ 6:30. Customer and Lotus Technical team alike and anyone that has found enjoyment in our yearly gathering with our killer team… who knows where we will end up this year.. years past have found us having a great time in a limo, eating at the Waffle House, playing at Pleasure Island…. you never know!!
