As Gabriella Davis announced on Saturday November 13th, we’re about to begin another book project! Gabriella, Tom Duff, and I will soon start work on an IBM Lotus/Sametime 8.5/8.5.1/8.5.x Administrator’s Guide for Packt Publishing.
Our goal is to write a book that will be source for those who may be upgrading Sametime, installing it for the first time, or simply looking for more information about Sametime 8.5.x and how it may fit into their environment. We also hope that this book may be a learning reference for those Domino administrators who may be dipping their toes in the Websphere Application Server arena for the first time.
Personally, I’m thrilled about this project. To be honest, I had started to miss writing (I may regret saying this some weekend in the future when we’ve got a 50 page chapter due!). I will be working with two people whom I admire and respect. And finally, I’ll learn even more about software that I use on a daily basis.
Every book starts with an outline submitted to a publisher. We appreciate those who reviewed it for us including Rob Ingram of the Sametime Product Team. Look for updates on our status along the way. We appreciate in advance any suggestions or thoughts you have on how to make this a valuable resource for you!
