IBM executive interview in the Philippines, someone may want to talk to him
Tags :Lotus Sametime Linux Domino 8
I saw the link pop in my newsreader and jumped over. Humorously there is a lot reporting wrong in the article that interviews Michael Karasick, director Lotus Software Development for China Development Laboratory in Beijing, China. Some of my favorite quotes:
IBM still believes that enterprise customers use e-mail as its main application for collaboration.
I am not quite sure about this
Push e-mail service will become available soon, the executive said.Asked how it works, Karasick said IBM was working with partners but declined to give details. The new version also revives a web access client.
"We haven't quite figured out how to make Notes available on a mobile device. We have no timeline," he said, when asked to provide more details about the push mail feature in Lotus Notes.
"But we will support mobile devices natively and through collaboration with vendors," he said.
He apparently has not seen Traveler or the anticipated timeline.
One application called Lotus SameTime version 8 is also offered on the Mac, PC and Linux platforms.
I know for sure this one is not available yet. He is a little ahead of the timeline here.
