With the usage of IBM Lotus Notes combined with IBM Lotus Sametime and BlackBerry Enterprise we are very well equipped with a lot of collaboration stuff. When I see our daily business with those technologies I can say: we are productive! The next "evolution" step should be the adoption of a "file management system". So I'm looking deeper into the possibilities of IBM Lotus Quickr (yep - another great IBM Lotus product). In this SnTT I'll show you the way how to install a Domino based Quickr with Domino LDAP access on top of Windows Server.Thu, 16 Jul 2009 21:22:46 GMThttp://blog.winkelmeyer.com/web/blog.nsf/permalink/installing-ibm-lotus-quickr-domino-with-ldap-accesshttp://blog.winkelmeyer.com/web/blog.nsf/permalink/some-thoughts-about-my-uklug-speaker-engagementAs I've written in my previous post I've been approved as speaker at UKLUG 2009.
