Some really good improvements around scaling, folder depth issue resolved, policies for connectors etc.

I just wish they had a tick box option to automatically DAOS enable all new places. (although as a DB property I wonder if fiddling with the templates would do this... leaves to investigate).]]>

Also very important is the simphony connectors.

My issue that led to this is that the "which version of the connector do I need to use with Notes 8.0.2IF2?" type question. It is too difficult to manage a complex Notes client rollout and management strategy without also needing to intricately manage the Quickr connectors as well.

I see no reason why the Connectors could not be an optional part of the Notes client package and thus always be kept in sync with the version of the Notes client on a machine.

Moving on from that, I would love to see IBM doing more "provisioning" of Notes components directly from the server as was promised by the Workplace Rich Client strategy all those years ago. Whilst SmartUpgrade gives us a limited amount of control over client rollouts, I would love to be able to deploy Quickr connectors, plugins, Sametime user rights etc. all from the server, never needing to access dektops. Wouldn't that help us all?]]>

Still wondering why activities made it into R8 when there was nothing to work with it, and teh Quickr connectors didn't.

It will not increase companies using Quickr out of the blue since they do nothing without having a quickr server.]]>

Companies who do not have Quickr - not sure it would drive folks to request it. The Connectors are something very specific for an application. Having users see that without having Quickr would probably cause more confusion than anything.

And for those asking for a connector that saves straight to Notes, its a huge effort. I am doing that for a customer right now - and the level of effort is gigantic. The whole WindowsNamespace stuff and the windows service that does the syncing is a pretty complicated technology. And none of that works on Linux or Mac - so you really have to build three implementations. Finder extensions on the Mac are a mess currently - I shudder thinking about how to make that work. :-) The packaging of all the Windows components is another issue as well - the Quickr Connector has a lot more 'stuff' than the Activities plug-in. We need Eclipse.org plug-ins to consume more than things we build in Eclipse :)]]>

I certainly wouldn't want to see it as part of the default install, but it could also be an option in the components.

Also, when I drag an email onto a place, I should get a mini dialog for putting a title, and some other basic info about it. Instead, I get a html file in quickr, and frequently, the things like graphical signatures wind up in other documents/posts in quickr.

And, while we are on the topic on better integration, things as simple as getting a photo to display in the profile should not be as involved (servlet fun - mine is still not working).

Sametime was fun enough to get a photo displaying - if I am installing Quickr for Domino Services, this sort of stuff should be seamless. Instead, I had tech support tell me to ditch the Domino Server as the directory and go for LDAP. Why o why - it did solve 99% of the problems, but if this doesn't work right, it should be fixed and transparent for a Domino shop to deploy.]]>

However, I would only want this if the plugin was still treated as such and we could easily update just the connector if a new Quickr release comes out in between Notes releases.]]>
