    Perhaps the editors could have taken the slides from the source, rather than an opportunistic blogger who couldn't handle the bandwidth?

  3. Re:People are missing the point by Mechanik · · Score: 1 · on Lotus Notes For Linux To Be Released By IBM
    The short answer: you can't customize the views any more than you can with the Windows version.

    The long answer: The Linux version of Notes is almost identical to the Windows version in terms of behavior -- it's just a native Notes plugin running inside of the eclipse framework. Pretty much everything inside the window frame is identical to Windows, so any supposed limitations of the Windows client are there in the eclipsified version.

    Largely you are right. They are not taking full advantage of the platform yet, and are still doing a lot of things the same way as always, but this is just the version version. Looking at the feature set from the EclipseCon session on it, it looks like they are starting to change things. They say as well that "By building on top of Eclipse RCP, Notes will move towards a new open and extensible programming model," so I think that there is a philosophical change going on in the Notes team as well, and that they're going to be embracing a more Eclipse-like philosophy going forward.

    Here's hoping anyway.

    NASA is also doing work using Eclipse as a rich client platform. They had a talk at EclipseCon about using Eclipse for the Mars rovers.

  5. Next Notes client is Eclipse-based by mccalli · · Score: 4, Informative · on IBM Germany Leaving Vista for Linux
    stuck with notes? i was hoping that would mean a native linux version of notes.

    As I understand it, the next Notes client will be an Eclipse-platform rich client. Here's an article about it

    Cheers,

    Yeah, they do.
    Eclipse Con 2006

    There's also just recently been a bunch of them. Second or so one since eclipse went opensource, and a whole bunch of organisations that jumped on board are starting to show off cool stuff
    (including the eclipse foundation themselves, there's been a number of nifty improvements)
