| A Muppet's Guide to Using Eclipse in Domino (or "Take my web service, please!")
|
| A Muppet’s Guide to Using Eclipse in Domino (or “Take my web service, please!”)
Java for Domino has been hyped since Notes 4.6x, everyone’s talking about Eclipse, and even your toaster has a web service. But how do you start? We mean really start, no assumptions made, none of this “It’s dead easy, you just invert the trifold overloader…” rubbish.
We’ll be looking at stuff like where best to shove your Java files, what version of Java to use with Domino, how to get your posh enterprise Java code into Domino blemish-free, and what the hell those error messages really mean. We’ll skim over a few of the good tools out there too, so if you’ve always been dubious about “packet sniffing” (and honestly, who can blame you?), hopefully we’ll lay your fears to rest.
Start-to-finish, we will consume a web service in Eclipse, and use that service in Domino, no messing.
Join us, learn to be smug, and get up-to-date. |

| Portal is your friend, just give it a real chance ( AKA Portal for those Yellow Zealots }:-) )
|
| Over the years portal has been the black beast in the Lotus community, pushed by IBM (often in the wrong direction), pushed back by yellow zealots that cry out loud if you just name Java/J2EE.
It's time to tame the beast and learn to live with it. Portal today has grown up is manageable and can bring value to your domino solution and customer.
Let's take an overview of what it offers, what it takes, where it can augment your domino enviroment, where it's bringing something you never imagined to be possible.
Version 6.1 is coming this year and it's bringing great stuff that will simplify the integration of domino applications. Take an early look at it and start planning your next big domino/portal solution/application. |

| DYSANT Mobile Connector
|
| Many companies using both Lotus Notes/Domino and BlackBerry are standing in front of the question "How to make our Lotus Notes based CRM, project management, workflow apps to be served by BlackBerry?! Keeping all ACL rules but with no additional programming!" Do you predict the need of a J2ME developer!?
DYSANT Mobile Connector is a tool that allows to bring any existing Lotus Notes app with all its original features into BlackBerry terminal. All you need to do is to register database within the tool, "scan" all its views, forms, feilds and decide which of them will be availbale through BlackBerry terminal. Add scripts, actions and ... you have a Lotus Notes app being fully served by BlackBerry with all Lotus Notes advantages.
During the session we will show you how to do that with no additonal programming and application server. |

We do too, so come watch Charles Robinson and Franziska Tanner-Whitlock attempt to not only explain the whole process but also DEMO it live in 60 minutes. If all goes well, the ILUG Domino server will actually be functioning by the time we're done |

| The Security Nip/Tuck - Tightening up your environment with Domino R8
|
| Has your security been left to get old and flabby? In this comprehensive session we'll take you through the new security enhancements introduced in Domino and highlight the most common security loopholes you may not be looking out for. From upgrading your certifiers and ids with higher quality keys to effective use of policies and how to secure traffic using SSL and TLS - we will demonstrate with live examples how each feature is configured and discuss where it could be used. Leave this session with the best knowledge to ensure Domino stays secure against the latest threats.
This session is intended for customers who may have originally installed Domino on versions 5 or earlier but have never reviewed their security. They may still be running the original keys, using physical certifiers, not utilising SSL or TLS for data transport, keeping copies of user ids for backup and may not be aware of what can now be controlled and managed with policies. These customers with aging environments are unnecessarily becoming ever more exposed to security threats simply due to their lack of knowledge. I hope to not only show them that Domino and Notes security has kept up with the growing security risks but explain how important it is to review and revisit security decisions made based on earlier versions.

| Charts! Reports! Graphs! Beer (no, not for you)...
|
| Need some charts, graphs, and reports from your Notes databases? We'll show you some techniques you can use right away. Turn a view into a bar chart, export data to Excel (bleh) or Symphony (yay), and even create comely (that's right, we said comely) graphs on the fly. You can display it all in dialog boxes, on Notes documents, or on the web. Heck, you could even do all three at once -- we don't care!
All of these techniques work with Notes 7 and 8, and they use free tools and free libraries that are free so you can do this stuff for free. That's free, free, free, and yet more free. That's a whole lot of free right there, so save your company some money with this spectacular - yet free - presentation. In return, we will graciously allow you to buy us beer. |

The feature-rich yet uncomplicated design of this template encourage wide adoption, enabling you to promote coding standards across your organization. Even advanced developers will find plenty of features to cherry pick for use in other applications. From integrated help and error handling to getting soft deletions right and providing an alternate "dashboard" interface, SuperNTF makes it easy to look like you're working hard. The session will also offer an in-depth review of the template’s advanced features for user activity and field change tracking, configuration, and data reporting/exporting, and show you how to inject new life into existing apps, or provide a strong foundation for new ones. |

| Moving from Plumber to Painter
|
| Developers are quite often very adept at making great functional applications (plumbing), but rotten at making them visually appealing (painting). Travel with me as I show how I'm working through the transition from plumber to painter, learning about things such as fonts, color selection, user interface design, and all those other things you wish weren't so important. |

| Notes 8 - Basic or Standard?
|
| For the first time, Notes 8 comes with 2 clients - Basic and Standard. But what's the difference between the two? What is all the 'Eclipse' stuff anyway? Am I going to be able to run this Standard client on my office PC's? Is it really that bad? Should I care? What is the answer to life, the universe and everything? In a shameless attempt to attract you away from free Beer, Warren will attempt to answer all these questions in just 60 minutes... |
