See this is what I am talking about

See this is what I am talking about.
This is not just one or two companies complaining. This is may companies complaining and leaving Lotus Notes.

I do not know what IBM\Lotus is looking at, but us Developers and Admins in the trenches are seeing Lotus Notes disappear. I would REALLY hate to see Lotus die off to a P.O.S. like Exchange...
I do not know what to tell IBM\Lotus to do but they need to do something.

I do not know how much this will prove my point but, if you go to www.dice.com and do a search for Lotus Notes, you will see less than 1,000 jobs. Now do the same search but for ASP.Net, you will see well over 4,000 jobs. this tells me that Lotus Notes is not in demand anymore because companies are moving to Microsoft....

Do not get me wrong my any means, I love Lotus, I have for 12 years, However if what we are seeing continues to happen, we developers and admins will not have a choice but to leave Lotus Notes as well if we want to keep employeed.
I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO DO THAT....

Also, most CEOs that I have dealt with hate Lotus Notes because they experienced it in some earlier version and think it has not changed.
Maybe IBM\Lotus should do something to prove to them that Lotus Notes has changed....

I do not speak for everyone else but I am sure they will agreee with me.
IBM\Lotus PLEASE DO SOMETHING!!!!
