Again, during the opening general session IBM talks about Lotus Notes Traveler. First of all they announce the support for Android platform, then a big news for people who wanted encrypted mail on iPhone: Lotus Notes Traveler Companion is available today on App Store!
Lotus Notes Traveler Companion allow to read encrypted mail on the iPhone directly using the Notes ID security!
Last
is the extension of the support for other operating system. I mean, now
Travel can be installed only on Windows OS, with Traveler 8.5.2 you can
also install on Linux SUSE!!!
Cool! Isn't it? It's so cool that we can't wait. 8.5.2 is supposed to be released in Q3-Q4 2010. This mean that we can have Android support on Linux based Traveler at the end of this year!

IBM Project Vulcan, photos and news

On the OGS we learn about IBM Project Vulcan, as report on Ed Brill's Blog “Project Vulcan is the blueprint for where Lotus Notes is going”. During the Opening general session we have some screen shots of the evolution of the Notes client:
and some concept on mobile devices like BlackBerry or iPhone:
Other news comes from the keynote during the first two day of Lotusphere, one is particularly important: after 8.5.2 Notes will be “vulcanized”.
Other pictures on Project Vulcan can be found in my Flickr photostream.
My 2 cents on this project are:
- Notes 9 will be the Project Vulcan implementation like Notes 8 has been the Hannover's one.
- Project Vulcan will be hugely developed in xPages and other web technology.
- Notes 3 to 8 apps still work fine in the Vulcan. This doesn't came from me but from history. :-)

General:
- My daily agenda: BP210, KEY101, BP108, BP111, BP204, ID615.
- “Project Vulcan is the blueprint for where Lotus Notes is going” [Ed Brill Blog]
Lotus Application Development Strategy:
- Lotus Notes/Domino developer skills are important and remain important.
- For the future release Lotus will support and integrate to OpenID.
- For the future release Lotus will support and integrate to Oauth.
- Again, next releases? Will be much more based on web technology (e.g. HTML5, CSS3, Dojo).
- Samples of integration with cloud software already exist: Tungle, Gist, Openspan.
