Re: Future of Domino?

[Robert Laing <rlaing@xxxxxxxxx>]

I went to the Domino Advisor conference in Las Vegas this summer and there 
was a presentation from an IBM'r who outlined the future plans for Domino. 
 He had slides with Domino version 10 described, no detail obviously, but 
he stated that the Domino roadmap is already planned for several years 
down the road.  I can dig up that powerpoint if anyone's interested -- 
send me email directly...

I take comments about Domino going away the same as I react to comments 
about the iSeries going away -- how long have I been hearing the iSeries 
is obsolete and will be phased out ?  Since 1995 ???

Future of Domino?






My boss just came back from the iSeries Tech Conference last week in 
Vegas. He went to a class "WebSphere and Domino: What, When and Why" given 

by Tracy Smith. Slide number 42 is something that I have not seen before. 
It has a graphic that shows the convergence of Domino and Workplace after 
the release of Domino 7. My boss stated that the presenter alluded that 
there would not be a Domino 8.

Ed Brill actually talks about this in his blog entry for today - which I 
am reading now. It seems to be more reassuring. I know this is somewhat in 

the infant stages, but what does this mean for Domino Admins/Developers if 

there is going to be a convergence? Should we start migrating to 
Workplace? I'm not worried, but I could see these questions coming to me 
from my boss...
