I am out on vacation for the next week, starting in Paris, then Ascot (near Heathrow) for a wedding, then London... so the blogging will be a little light. However, I don't want to stand in the way of progress :-)
The Notes product team has finished and just published a "cookbook" white paper entitled "Composite Applications in Notes: Benefits and Technical Overview". This 70-page paper is being released to help define where Notes 8 will deliver new value:
The purpose of this document is to illustrate how your business can apply knowledge to accelerate business processes by building a bridge between your employees and the information that they need on a day to day basis using Composite Applications in IBM® Lotus Notes.Check out the full paper at the link above.
Composite applications integrate multiple applications together on the desktop to share and dynamically change information in real time as the end user works the business process. By optimizing the information for the task at hand and freeing the end users from distraction, precious seconds can be shaved off of time sensitive business processes.
Composite applications can bridge both information technology and line of business systems so that end users have the right information, at the right time. This enables your team to respond to changes in the information as they happen, to speed up response time and to increase their ability to adapt to external pressures placed on the business.
Leveraging the power of Lotus Notes, composite applications can provide your team with the ability to coordinate calendaring, project management and other activities so that scarce resources are used efficiently.

Ed for someone who professes not to care about horse racing, you've managed to make 2 of the biggest horse racing events without trying. Last year it was the Melbourne Cup and now you just happen to be at Ascot for the last day of Royal Ascot. Let me know if you are going to get near a "Turf Accountant" during your stay and I'll try to give you a few flyers for the feature that day.

Well, I won't be watching any tennis or any horse race. The wedding I'm attending on Saturday is called for half two, before the big race. We are staying in the hotel at the wedding venue and really have no plans to venture anywhere else on Saturday given the likely congestion in the area.
Now, as to my main topic, 24 hours and no feedback at all on the white paper?

Very good indeed! Have just scanned through it but will really get on to it next week. How about coming up with white papers with similar level of detail for other new technologies like XPages, Notes ID Credential Vault? If there are no equivalent Redbooks of-course.

You are probably right to stay close to your hotel. Ascot is kind of a zoo during the Royal meeting (I've been there-- check the link). Actually 2:30 is post time for the first race of the day, depending on the length of the ceremony you could nip over for the last few races.
The last race of the meeting is a wonder, you don't often see horses run for two and a 5/8th miles "on the flat", that's like the distance Kentucky Derby and the Belmont stakes combined.
As to the original post, sorry Ed, I'm an Admin/Infrastructure guy -- I sure the development stuff is great, but it isn't my area of expertise.




Enjoy the tennis Ed!
