Sametime 7.5



People are talking it up, newspapers are touting the new functionality that is being offered and blogs are showing some of it off.  But how many of you use the Connect client?  Keep in mind most of these features are only for the Connect client and Meeting Services, not the integrated or Java client sets.

Adam Gartenberg  (welcome to his new blog), Offering Manager for Sametime, takes a trip down memory lane today and talks about Sametime of the past (1.5).  Interesting to see how long it has been (1999 he states) since there has been any facelift to the product set at all.

I guess I am getting frustrated with the current beta, it is public now so I can say that, and the input that has been given on what direction it is taking.  An awesome product, well yes it most certainly can be.  But will it blow everyone away on the first instance of release?  That is the question I have to ask myself.

There is a lot of work to be done on documentation and many facets I had hoped that would be ready to roll but aren't quite there yet.
