Where does SSJS Print() in the client end up
I answered a question in the XPage forum yesterday but I thought that this might be something worth writing a line about
because this is one of the things that I was wonderign about when starting with XPages.
To view the print statement you should look in the menu
Help -> Support -> view trace
Or you could create a new icon and in the property box for target
add the following -RPARAMS - console
The last param is also great when debugging Notes clients that doesn't startup.
But beware if you close the console window the client crashes!!

Watch what you put in you scoped varables
Your XPage app may run out of memory if you put js functions/classes or domino objects in scoped variables because these objects is not Serializable. So because you can it is not always ok to do that ;-)

Custom controls and library controls
I read today in a blog post by Niklas Heidloff that IBM has been thinking about of building a converter of custom controls to extension library controls.
I think that isn't any good idea, why because the installation of extension library is
alot of work today why would you like to have even more controls that needs to be installed into the designer and updated individually?
If this should become a good idea, then we need a new way of updating all these controls like the updater in Chrome or Firefox.
And the updater can have several update sites so you can have one on your local domino server for your own controls and one on OpenNTF.org.

Changing value of an xpage dojo timecontrol?
Does anybody know how to change the value of a xpage timecontrol in a onclick event and the information is still there after a full or partial refresh?
The Oracle Google Android lawsuit
I read that the lawsuit that Oracle has done against Google for using Java in the Android operating system demanding $6 billons. That is alot of money. But I also read that Google has bought 1000 patents from IBM and that sale had gone thru recently.
I'll bet that one or more of these 1000 patents is going to be used to do a counter lawsuit that will block the use of Oracles database engines. So Oracle will be forced to drop the lawsuit.
Apple has also done a lawsuite that is blocking Samsung for selling Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia and the US.
I understand that someone wants to get payed for the development they have done, but this is getting ridiculous!!!
Where would we be if all companies where working like this all the time?

The death of social media
Now Goggle + is here and we have twitter, Facebook, Connections. In all this places people post information. The information is not marked in any way so Personal, Hobbies and work stuff is mashed together in a huge mass.
People gets overloaded with information that they don't want/need to know. I belive the information needs to be filtered. Lets say you have 300 friends that posts 3 posts on facebook every week. That's 900 posts a week. thats more than 100 posts per day. If you then also have friends on G+ and twitter that you follow and they might do double posts how much information do you need to read then. And with some people you want to read about work stuff and other you want to read information about their family. If you are following people globally they perhaps are doing posts in several languages and you are interested in the english posts.
I think that people will stop using these things if the information can't filtered.
That is what I think, what do you think?

A response to Bill's post
Lotus has a stamp of being old. I have eared this so many times Lotus Notes is that still updating?
I believe there is several reasons to this problem.
1. Marketing of the Lotus platform
2. IT departments hasn't updated their Lotus software, why hasn't this been done?
Cost, Can't see the need to update not that many new functions.
3. The domino designer got free to late
I think that all of the above reasons combined has been reasons why the Lotus platform has and still is loosing customers.
IBM and the Lotus community need to show what can be done with Lotus Notes and that new versions do exists and what they can do.
The openntf och xpages sites are good but there will also be a need for ads/ videos / blogposts about how companies solved their problems using Lotus Notes.
Perhaps someone should announce a video competition for marketing videos.
Lotus Notes is a platform for the future!!

Redirector Custom Control for xpages is released
My first addition to openntf.org is released today
Redirector
The redirector helps you to send the users to other XPages if conditions is meet or not
i.e The user doesn't have the admin role, redirect!!
the user is using firefox, redirect!!
an IPad, redirect!!
User is not Editor, redirect!!
It's nothing special with this Custom control, just that it's reusable code as it should be. You don't need to rebuild redirect code for you admin interface, special functions. Just add the redirector to your XPage.

Deploying traveler with ssl
A short post with some field observations if you are going to deploy traveler.
If you are going to use ssl get a real ssl certificate. Then you will not get any problems with devices not being able to connect.
Get a separate ip adress and dns name for the traveler server.
If the above thinks are done then you shouldn't have any problems ;-)

Microsoft got to be kidding 16GB
When doing a systemstate backup on a very small Activedirectory less than 25 users no special things at all.
This backup takes up 500mb in windows 2003 I think this is huge.
But When I did the same backup of the systemstate in Windows 2008 16GB
Microsoft must be kidding, who wrote this backup of the Active directory?
What where they thinking, I don't have a clue what needs to be backuped so lets backup all
the files on the server?
Please someone build a Active directory substitute so we can get rid of this crap...
Rules in my inbox is dead part 2
I have now got the inbox rules to work again. Thought I would share with everybody how I got this to work.
I haven't found any good way to debug the server rules on the server but I found this out.
By reading some code. ;-)
1. All rules are resaved everytime you move a rule up and down.
2. The rules are stored in the Calendar Profile document
3. You can max have 100 rules per inbox
4. The Calendar Profile document can start acting strange due to policy changes if you use them
What did I do to make my rules work
1. Checked that I didn't have 100 rules
2. Created a rule based on sometime in a title of an email
3. Placed the rule at the bottom of my Rules list, so it would evaluate last
4. Tested that the rule didn't work
5. Started to move the rule up and sending one email per move
6. Found the faulty / corruped rule and removed the rule
And now everything work great...

No need for MS Office anymore with 8.5.3
If the gold version of Lotus Notes 8.5.3 has Symphony 3.0 as the beta releases has then
The need to Microsoft Office on company pc is almost 0%
The new support for VBA script is the key enhancement that will make the transition from Ms Office to Symphony easier. Why pay alot for MS Office when you can use Symphony for free??
