Just a wee delay for Sametime 8.5.1

Category Sametime
From IBM Channel Comms:

On Tuesday, July 27, IBM announced that IBM Lotus Sametime 8.5.1 would be generally available (GA) for customers and IBM Business Partners to install today, Thursday, July 29.  Unfortunately, we identified an issue during the build process and have opted to delay the GA release by up to two weeks.    

We understand that some Sametime customers will be impacted by this delay and apologize for the inconvenience.  However, IBM takes product quality very seriously.  


We will use the
SametimeBlog to provide updates if anything changes.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of us here on the blog or your IBM Sales Representative.

Please visit the
SametimeBlog for the official communication.  If you have any questions, please contact product management.

Collaboration University 2010 Super-Early reg ends Sunday...ish

QuickImage Category Collaboration University
Just a quick reminder to anyone who doesn't receive newsletters or the mailings that Collaboration University 2010, the only conference dedicated to Lotus Quickr and Sametime, will bump its registration fees over the weekend. This is the fifth year and eleventh and twelfth installations of Collaboration University, and we (SNAPPS, Turtle Partnership, Connectria, Epilio, and BE Systems/Bluewave) are thrilled at the prospect of educating and demonstrating techniques, best practices, and features in Sametime and Quickr 8.5.

A little content information has been posted here, and we're working hard on the full agenda (which is no small feat with one of the products still in super secret beta!). But you can expect:

--All new technical content, with all new product releases

--New cross-product sessions for integrated environments (where are those log files again?!)
--The introduction of management, strategy, innovation and collaboration culture topics - critical success factors for any installation

So sometime late Sunday night or early Monday morning, we'll bump the fee up $100 to the July rate. Or, it might wait until I've landed in New Hampshire Monday afternoon, as I have to be awake at 4:30 for my flight...hence the "ish" in the title!

Hope to see you there in London or Chicago!
