Jake, thanks for your help from this site has solved a number of issues for me over the years. Family is much more important than loyalty to a brand you do not own yourself.
Interesting opinions here.
I'm an Admin. My view is better yet worse than yours.
The last 9 months has seen and heard more from customers than previous years. Maybe it was the iPhone support for traveler but the interest is there again, for now.
I don't see people leaving for SP. I see people leaving for the Cloud.
Once there, admins are no longer needed for many orgs.
Some argue, but yesterday I was told by a CIO to set them up and train an AA to add/drop people and change passwords. Ouch!
On the plus side, you can all show your apps to clients.
I get to show off a full functioning notes client, sidebar, storage savings with daos, id vault magic, sametime telephony.
But then we go to Connections. And once Websphere comes up so many shy away. But the truth is if you work with it, not against it, you will be better off.
Websphere development is needed everywhere, so stay with the catalog, be an IBM BP, not just a Lotus BP.
