  24. Domino is not a flexible development platform. on Linux Intranet Application and Collaboration Software? · · Score: 1

    Previous posts are very correct to say that if you go Notes, you are locked into a proprietary hole. You are stuck in a world of flat files with a rather poor development tool. The e-mail and calendar tools are not that great either.

    We are currently looking at Oracle and Cold Fusion (both of which run on Linux now)because we are going to do a rather large rollout. I would guess that many of the other solutions listed would work well for an intranet though.
