Re: Re: Disappointing

That's a very good point. I appreciate the reputation that Domino has among the technorati; it's robust, secure, scalable, multi-platform, etc. But most end-users just want a simple, intuitive e-mail/calendar/contacts client that works well and feels familiar. The Notes client has dramatically improved with 8.x, but it's still not Outlook. It's like the end-users are hostages to the IT department. Face it, you just don't see droves of disgruntled users looking for an alternative - any alternative - to using Microsoft Outlook, even if they have to pay for it themselves. And that's my point.

Regardless of the motivation for creating DAMO, it provides alot of us with that alternative. There's no Microsoft connector that works with Outlook 2007. It would be a great olive branch if IBM would make DAMO freely and publicly available to us, and I think it would garner alot of goodwill from frustrated end-users. IBM still gets the server business, and we have a choice of which front-end we prefer to use.
