Ext.nd at Lotusphere - who´s interested and what would you like to see?
Last year, Rich Waters and I did a presentation on Ext.nd. Basically, it was about how to quickly get started in using it but didn't get into any advance topics. Last year we also submitted abstracts on covering advanced Ext.nd topics and even an abstract on doing a hands-on session but they weren't picked. We would like to present again at LS 09 but before we submit any abstracts we want to ask you what you would like for us to present on?
Jack,
You may want to cross post this request on { Link } There is now an LS09 Best Practices Sessions IdeaSpace.
Bruce, thanks for the info. I'll take a look at that IdeaSpace.
What about "Fulfilling expectations - how to promise a new release and then actually release it"?
Jack, please do take the time to put this over on IdeaJam. See my post on this for more detail.

@Christian - LOL, that's a good one. I definitely have pie in my face on that one. We've actually been ready to release beta 1r1 with categorized view support since June but we had some hold-ups working through the LGPL/GPL thing and then there were several personal family issues that Rich and I had individually in July and August and now we are wrapping up the info for our article in THE VIEW on using Ext.nd and Rich got pulled away to Finland on a project for Ext. In my defense, I have emailed to almost 40 individuals who have asked the next beta. Did you ask? I can send it to you right now if you want.
@Mac - yep, that's the plan.
Hejsan
I think I am interested how I can Extend my current Notes Design elements (views, outlines, framesets, forms) with Ext in order to be able to quickly update my OLD Domino applications into more 2.0 web applications.
So simply: how can i transform my current apps without a few simple steps in a attractive application.
Just promise to make sure and not use the phrase "Web 2.0".
@Jack: Thanks for your reply - yes, I'm very interested. Would you please email me the next beta of Ext.ND? I'm working for a large multinational company and we're fighting to keep Lotus Notes as an application platform. One of the main reasons why management considers to drop Lotus Notes is "applications don't work properly in the webbrowser and it takes a lot of development effort to get them working". Release 8.5/XPages isn't an option right now, so Ext.ND is sort of our last hope to show this isn't the case.
