Some 6.5.1 release info

The more I read on Lotus Workplace, the more bits of information I gather on cool little pieces of things that will be coming.

The road map for the traditional Notes Domino and other collaboration products such as Lotus Instant Messaging (formerly Sametime) and Lotus Team Workplace (formerly QuickPlace) will focus on deepening the integration with Workspace through portal access.

In the first quarter of 2004, Notes Domino 6.5.1 will deliver a Dynamic Reverse Proxy Portal capability that will provide a better way to access Domino functions and apps through portlets, Bisconti said.

"In the past we haven't been able to provide dynamic [application] access. Direct application access to domino apps via portlets can surface not just the data but the run time and all of the application," Bisconti said.

Now I have no idea of what the term Dynamic Reverse Proxy Portal really means though.
 There will be plenty more about Eclipse coming and how it will be a new alternative acting as the Notes client without changing the GUI too much.  A Notes type client for Linux will be well received in my office, even if it has to grow some with it being a new release.
