I were at the IBM Lotus Workplace 2.0 launch at Älvsjö outside of Stockholm today, and I was quite impressed with the amount of work that IBM has put into the Lotus products in the last years. The future looks promising, with both Notes/Domino 7 and 8. The key concepts are small components created in Java, downloadable via a browser. I enjoyed the technical speaches of both Lars-Olof Allerhed and Karl Dettner. Uffe Sorensen did a great job into explaining the product line. I will test Workplace any day now…
