I just had a meeting with
IBM Lotus Software GM Ambuj Goyal here at the company's annual Lotusphere
conference. Judging from the general tone at the show, my numerous roadmap
briefings with IBM execs, and discussions with customers, it seems Lotus
is back on track after scaring the bejesus out of its loyal customer base
a couple years back. The J2EE and Big Blue abyss of the Lotus developer's
nightmares aren't quite so scary. Or at least it seems that way.

IBM / Lotus did indeed scare people a few years ago.... I believe that a clear and coherent strategy has emerged... If only it had been this way from the beginning...
