Beta IBM Lotus 9.0 is coming for Public Beta

previously, I posted a message about the arrival of Lotus Domino r8.5.4, and an online web broadcast was launched in 13th day of this month. It is said that 2000 people registered and watched the broadcast on site. Earlier today (August 1, November 13, us time), IBM announced the new IBM notes/Domino 9 social Beta plan, which is expected to be released in August December 14.
edbirll said that the Notes/Domino social edition was first published at the lotusphere 2012 conference and has been under development for more than a year. It was decided to release the beta version, for the Notes/Domino product, it was the first time in a long period of time, because this release was the 9.0 product, rather than the r8.5.4 product mentioned earlier.
we call this Social Networking version 9.0 extremely accurate. At a certain point in 2013, we will still release the 8.5.4 maintenance version, but there are not many new features. In general, version. 0 refers to a version that you can test on your own in the IT industry. You need to wait for the release of the fix version. R8.5.4 is also used to repair the stability and reliability of r8.5 products. There will be a lot of new features in version 9.0, but its infrastructure is still built on version 9.0. We hope you can deploy it. version 0, because our emphasis on products will be your strong backing.

The increase in the product version number mainly involves the following tasks:
1. Seize the market;
2. convey the importance the supplier attaches to the product and the value delivered by the product;
3. Extend the product life cycle;
4. New Features and product capabilities are provided.
Therefore, if a product is a new product, it will certainly add embedded user experience, stylish interfaces, new mail and calendar functions, such as the notes browser plug-in and SAML support, traveler support on system I server, new xpage features, etc. Therefore, Lotus 9.0 ......
Another thing is that we have shown the product roadmap for the next three years, and clearly know that r8.5 will continue to be supported until at least 2016.
