sure would be nice if these Symphony updates came at the same time as the Notes client upgrades... No I have to do a separate install for Symphony and remove the integrated version from 8.0.2... hurmph!

@1 longer term, we are working on a plug-and-play architecture. The 1.1 code is in the 8.5 beta 2 that came out today.

another update site perhaps? That would be 3? Sametime, Domino/Notes and Symphony?

I read something in a discussion about versions of Symphony making it's way into the Ubuntu (and Fedora, and SuSE) repository(ies) (which is awesome by the way), but the article mentioned Lotus Notes and Sametime as well. The wording wasn't clear, and I almost missed it, but it made me want to ask, are there any plans to add trial versions of IBM software in the various Linux repositories? If true, I'd be curious about how you handle the proof of licensing. If not, I can try and dig up the link for you if you need to contact the authors.

Either way, it'd be FANTASTIC to be able to have synaptic updatable versions of Lotus-family of applications.

For those of you not in Linux land, Synaptic is one of the most elegant ways of installing and maintaining updates for all software installed on the computer (assumning they were installed using the debian-model of repository databases) as well as the OS itself. I could see such an adventure exposing the Lotus family to users who never would have otherwise taken a stab at it.
