With Lotusphere 2009 and my session done I upgraded to Notes 8.5 yesterday from the beta version I have been using so far. Upgrade was uneventful and my Notes client is working fine today and my demos today went just fine. Only issue I have is launching Notes from Eclipse. When upgrading from previous beta versions I just had to update the JVM config, the install_id and the rcp_version in my Eclipse launch configuration but after upgrading to Notes 8.5 GOLD I’m getting strange JAAS errors (Eclipse not being able to locate the NOTES LoginContext configuration). I will have to look into this tomorrow when I’m in the office or simply change my Eclipse configuraion to use the Lotus Expeditor toolkit 6.2 instead of my own configuration.

Lotusphere 2009: Badge stickers
I got back from the US yesterday and hung my Lotusphere 2009 badge in my office with the rest of them and again got surprised by the number of stickers I managed to attain. Blogger, exhibitor/sponsor, speaker, press/analyst, bdday and of cause the Danish flag… 🙂 Wow! The press/analyst I got because it was the only one I didn’t have (besides the IBM ones).

This is way cool as announced by Ed. It will be interesting to see how the service is priced.
