Topics
Websphere Portlet Factory re-branded as Web Experience Factory
* New release – IBM Web Experience Factory 7.0.1 helps deliver fast, simple development of enterprise multichannel applications for exceptional web experiences
* Does a company need to be large to utilise WAS/Portal?
* So is this a sign that WebSphere products are getting rebranded as well?
* Doesn’t Portlet Factory sit in the Lotus brand too? At least from a WPLC/ICS perspective?
MWLUG (Midwest Lotus User Group Conference)
* Dates: August 24-26, 2011
* Place: Sheraton Milwaukee Brookfield Hotel, Brookfield, Wisconsin (near Milwaukee)
* Plan to have an XPages track like there was last year
XPrize Design Competition
* Contestants build an XPages application based on one of the old Nifty Fifty templates from the R3/R4 days
* Contest is Richard Moy’s idea — I added the templates idea
* Limited to subset of nine templates to make the judges job easier
* We have six judges total, from both inside and outside the Lotus community
* We encourage particpants to submit their entry to OpenNTF.org when the contest is over
* You can use custom controls from this XPrize contest for the current OpenNTF contest
The community call
* How did the call meet the expectations of the attendees?
* Changes in title of the webcast, was this wise? Created expectations that wouldn’t be met?
* How do we take this new Social Business message to customers and executives in a way that makes sense of the Notes/Domino/Lotus heritage?
Tips:
Darren:
GPS Location by Acceleroto for the iPhone. This thing is scarily accurate.
Mike:
Android phone app called Juice Defender which saves battery life. There are free and pay versions. I’m using the free version and it seems to be helping.
Stuart:
Alfred – great replacement for Quicksilver as task launcher on Mac. Free on Mac App Store, Lion ready. Also, get free retakes on IBM certification exams
