For all of you complaining I would say : What did you make in the last 12 months to show your customers and managers how great XPages are, how cool building eclipse plugins for notes client is ? Did you took the time to send a link saying "hey, watch this new cool stuff from IBM"... no, I bet you kept coding your views and your agents like 10 years ago !
Domino is a fantastic product but it suffers from his "Domino 5" image. We need to show and build new good looking apps. I'v seen so many self proclamed Domino profesionnals that nowadays build "R4 like" applications with poor look n feel, desastrous performance...
Come on, with 8.5 Domino provides an incredible toolset with completely standard and open technologies ! Show it ! Use it ! Shout it !
I'm a little provocative here of course but, come on, the community is also vastly responsible of the domino image and while we work on whatever pays the bill, we should aslo take some times to evangelise our customers and managers about what we think is a great product.
