Notes And Domino 8.5 Public Beta On The Way

Jan Kenney has just announced that a PUBLIC beta of the next release of Lotus Notes and Lotus Domino is coming soon.

The GREAT news is that a PUBLIC BETA for Notes/Domino 8.5 will begin shortly (within a couple of weeks, late May or early June), where we will unveil the latest beta versions of the Notes 8.5 client for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Citrix, as well as, Domino 8.5 server for Windows (32 & 64bit), AIX (32 & 64bit), Linux, Solaris, and System i (newly renamed to just i).

I’m really looking forward to this new beta as there are a lot of things that were announced at Lotusphere 2008 that I can’t wait to get my hands on, like Xpages, DAOS, ID Vault and most importantly an updated Mac client beta.

I would be interested to see if this beta build will include the Lotus Designer client based on Eclipse or not. No date or release number has been announced for that but it sure would be nice surprise to see it in 8.5.

I was at Admin 2008… According to the spam email I just got

Yes, apparently I was at Admin 2008 because I just got spammed by a company called Relavis thanking me for dropping by their booth there, an amazing feat when you think about it as I have never been to any of the ‘Admin’ conferences or even been to Boston in about 5 years.

Companies should really learn that sending spam to people who’s livelihood is related to stopping spam is the quickest way of losing a potential customers business. I know I certainly wouldn’t recommend any company that has spammed me.

Maybe I’ll get another spam from them this week thanking me for visiting them at WES2008 in Orlando. I’m sure the weather down there is pretty nice so I wouldn’t mind being there also

Eclipse ( and not the Notes Client type )

Everything seems to be getting on the eclipse bandwagon, Lotus Notes, Domino Designer and now even the moon.

I’ve taken a load of pictures and had them uploaded to flickr automatically thanks to my Eye-Fi card but if you really want to find out what happened tonight head on over to Terri’s blog for the full writeup.
