Developing the information you need to leverage Lotus productshttp://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/ltieteamblog.nsf/en-usThu, 10 Jul 2008 10:12:53 AM -0400 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 10:12:53 AM -0400 DeAnna Steiner New version 6.1 releases: WebSphere Portlet Factory, WebSphere Dashboard Framework, Lotus ActiveInsight
The marketing team has been promoting the 6.1 release pretty steady on the WebSphere Portal product page. But a few sparklers on the page when we released would have been appropriate!

I thought these links might be helpful.

The announcement letter was released in June '08. (URL: { Link })

We had a press release in April, in support of the Impact '08 event. (URL: { Link })

Finally, we have a "Why upgrade?" pages that was published in June (URL: { Link })

I hope the links are helpful. I passed your comments along to some of the web folks too.]]>

I see it has taken top billing on the Portal landing page and Documentation Library, is available for Download via PartnerWorld, but no announcement letter or buzz.

Kind of an underwhelming coming out party...]]>

For more personal or self indulgent stuff I use the feed reader on my blackberry, which is where I picked up this post.

The notes 8 reader needs to grow from a personal widget into an enterprise application. I need it to sync with my blackberry and for it to offer a feed of new feeds to help disseminate information. Atom pub rocks and lotus should do something to help users take advantage. Thanks for the chance to give an opinion.]]>

The Notes 8 feed reader seems to be old and bureaucratic comparing to it.

Thank you.]]>

Several feeds were tried and tested (inclusing Notes 8) but Goolge Reader is my favorite; it´s availalbe on every pc and every customer I visit (some customers do not allow me to use my onw laptop at their premises). The best part of if it beoing that´s I am always synched in: with separate software installations I keep running into aticles I read earlier on another pc.

The Notes 8 feedsreader is insufficient: To much, available only on my laptop, not synched etc. Maybe if the feeds were stored in a db that can replicatie and had a web interface it would be usefull, currently, it´s not.]]>

I would like to see the help databases updated with each point release rather than having to go to release notes and scour the web to find out about changes between the installed help and the release I am using. I understand it has always been this way, and it has always been annoying and a burden. The end result is people think the help is wrong, and it is. But it's only the installed copy on their computers that's wrong, and it won't be correct until the next major point release.

I'm mentioning this here because I don't know another way to share this feedback. If there is a more appropriate method let me know. :-)]]>

For upgrades with big changes to the client (4>5 and I might be doing this soon for 7>8), I set up a dummy server and client in a meeting room. I write up a lesson that includes all the typical things users do, and make sure that at least one person from each department runs through it. But it is available for anyone at any time to try. This gives users a chance to (1)allay any fears that they won't be able to do X with the new version, (2)see the benefits of the new features. This leads to people looking *forward* to the upgrade, instead of being afraid because it looks so different.]]>
