Got a strainer? the fat client returneth
Tags :Announcement
I was reading a November
issue of CRN that had an interview
with Ambuj Goyal that talks about the return of the full-function fat client.
Here is the product roadmap he laid out which turned some heads.
LOTUS PRODUCT ROAD
MAP
>>Q1
2004: Notes/Domino 6.5.1 (includes fixes, integrated IM, Team Workplace,
Domino Document Management)
>>Q2 2004: Workplace 2.0
(rich client, collaborative document management, Workplace Builder tools)
>>Q3 2004: WebSphere Portal
5.1
>>Q4 2004: Workplace 2.5
(better support for disconnected clients, better mobile device support);
Domino 7.0 (DB2 support, enhanced portlets, Workplace integration, better
e-mail support for disconnected users)
>>BEYOND 2004: Domino 8.0
(better rich-client applications support for disconnected users)
More nice full client experience. Of course I bet this will revolve around Eclipse as we all are hearing, but I want to know what versions of Java will be required and what will be supported? We run into this now with Domino Web Access and the wrong Java version biting us in the arse. Hurts to tell the customer that sorry, you cannot run that Sun JVM and try and use that IM package for web meetings currently.
