Rumours of the demise of Notes keeps circulating - now customers are calling us asking whether it is true!!
At the office we have received two calls from different customers asking to the rumours that are circulating about the future demise of Lotus Notes. Apparently the customers have been contacted by Microsoft shops asking them whether they really want to bet on a loosing platform that IBM plans to stop investing in after 2007!!
Who starts these rumours? Well I guess we know but how can they get away with it?
I really hope IBM will rise to the challenge and with BIG WORDS in the printed press clearly make the point that Lotus Notes is here to stay!

Not sure what else we can possibly do. Every Lotus executive has been quoted as saying there will be a Notes 8, 9, 10, as recently as this article: http://www.networkworld.com/news/2005/111405-lotus.html
Microsoft keeps making these claims by phone, but I can't ever seem to find it in writing. If you get something written, please let me know.
