Sametime 7.5

Ed Brill posts about a public demo of Lotus Sametime 7.5.

This is beta code, not feature complete, things are going to change before release and the back-end server isn't guaranteed to be up 24/7, but it's still worth taking a look.

I am a big fan of IBM Community Tools (ICT) - which is the internal tool that Sametime 7.5 is heavily influence by.... good to see it'll soon escape into the wider world.

Definitely agree with this. I too have been using ICT for several years inside IBM and it's exciting to see a derivative of it getting released externally.

People who come to visit us inside IBM and see it on our desktops are always asking where they can get it.

Indeed. I particularly like the integration with the corporate directory (BluePages) and the extensibility (plugin) support.

I too was using ICT when working for IBM as a contractor and it is a really powerful tool!
BTW do you know if ICT and ST 7.5 plugins are compatible?
