One of the highlights from Lotusphere 2012 was the accouncement of the next feature release of Lotus Notes called Lotus Notes Social Edition. Lotus Notes Social Edition features a new homepage with activity streams and embedded apps (embedded experiences) using open standards such as OpenSocial. From the Lotus Notes homepage a user can interact with [...]

The XPages Extension Library project on OpenNTF was updated yesterday to version 853-20111215. This version matches the newly released Domino 8.5.3 Upgrade Pack 1. If you want to use the OpenNTF version (and not Upgrade Pack 1) you can update your servers and clients using the update site method. You can find the installation instructions for the [...]

Great news for XPages today: Notes/Domino 8.5.3 Upgrade Pack 1 has just been released. In short, Upgrade Pack 1 is an IBM supported version of the XPages Extension Library. This should help remove the fear of the Extension Library being open source that some customers have had, and thereby improve the adoption of XPages out [...]

Last week we held the 46th DanNotes conference. We had 80 participants and 7 speakers. Some of the presentations are available now as links on the agenda. Others will be added to the agenda later. We will also publish videos from the event once they have been edited. On the agenda you can find links [...]

A quick blog post to let you know that last week I was invited to be part of This Week in Lotus episode 79 together with Stuart McIntyre, Darren Duke – and Gab Davis as the 2nd guest. We discussed Sametime, OpenNTF, XPages and very naturally the 46th DanNotes conference which took place the day after the recording. It was [...]

If you have useful code snippets then consider adding them to XSnippets. I have added my first code snippet to XSnippets based on my blog [...]

As previously blogged my company PHL Consult and I support OpenNTF and open source. To further show my support I nominated myself for one of the 9 member director positions in the OpenNTF board of directors. The board of directors for the newly incorporated OpenNTF has now been set and I am happy to have [...]

One year ago I started as self-employed consultant at my own company PHL Consult after having worked for IBM for 16 years – and what a great year! Starting on my own has proved to be one my of my best decisions ever. It has been a year of classic Lotus Notes application development work, XPages [...]

My company, PHL Consult, became member of OpenNTF in August and thereby supports OpenNTF and the use of open source within the Lotus Domino/XPages community. This means that I support the idea of open source in general (and support OpenNTF as an organization) – and that I both contribute code to and reuse code from OpenNTF. I [...]

Today I was asked: how do you make sure that anonymous users do not see content that only logged on (and thereby authorized) users must see? I often use a simple solution of having a xp:panel for anonymous users and another xp:panel for authorized users (both on the same XPage). Only one of the two [...]
