Ask the Product Managers LS12 addition - what I’d like to see answered
One of the most successful sessions of LS11 maybe back (it should be, although I'll admit I haven't checked the schedule), and if it is here are some of the things I'd like to see addressed (in no specific order):
To any PM of any product I am always full of ideas (and other stuff occasionally), but really, we don't just sit around making this stuff up. This is what my (and your) customers are asking me week in week out (OK, so the Quickr Connector one is me - I get this about once a month right now), but I'm always available to bounce ideas off when you are looking at the list of things you'd like to accomplish. I also like Rob Novak's idea (comment 25 on the above like) about round tables......
For comparison go take a peek at the LS11 addition of this post.
And I hope my posting these questions ahead of time, then possibly asking them doesn't constitute "peacocking" as that is neither the intent nor the goal of this post. Any PM is free to comment here prior to the session and I would think that would be satisfactory as well.
- Now that I have a Macbook Air.....Quickr Connectors for Mac. Come on, this was on last years too.
- Lotus Protector for Mail Security - Your gonna make that applet (a) not an applet, and (b) faster right?
- Lotus Protector for Mail Security - ICAP for Domino servers
- Lotus Protector for Mail Security - SSO with Notes, like Sametime has.
- Lotus Mobile Connect - any reason the fixes on Fix Central are "protected" via entitlement checks?
- Wiki's/InfoCenters - the screen shots and versions in the docs are not always up to date (or even correct)
- Traveler - Spell check on Android
- Traveler - ActiveSync on Android (several reasons, not least the set up headaches, and the issue above)

Jan, to my knowledge (at least as far as fixes I use, Domino, Notes, Traveler, iNotes, Quickr, LMC, Protectors) this is the only product that does that. Now, a LMC licensee needs a server AND the client to be able to use the product, so that makes me scratch my head as to why this is. As a partner we don't get entitlements per-se and PartnerWorld does NOT have these fixes so how are we supposed to get them (bearing in mind most partners are barred from issuing PMRs)?
Yes, yes, yes on Quickr Connectors for Mac. Folks just will not use Quickr without some form of in place editing. And Notes mail integration as on Windows would be nice too :-)
We use SNAPPS PandaBear for uploading and downloading files, and it's great, but it's not a substitute.
I can't understand why this hasn't been done, especially with IBM's seeming preference for Mac as a desktop.
