(Not sure what this is about?  Read this and this first.)

So, I’ve chatted now with the Product Manager for Notes, and Merry from the Lotus User Experience team is going to introduce me to a couple of Lead Designers for Notes, as well as the Lead User Researcher.  By any stretch of the imagination, I can consider my blog rantings to have been successful beyond my wildest dreams.

My boss is out of town this week.  Hopefully when he returns next Monday I won’t find that I was fired, after all. 

I didn’t get a chance to install Notes 8 today, had a server blow up.  Four unpleasant hours later I had some backed up work to do.  It’ll probably happen tomorrow.
