Народ, делаю доброе дело - предупреждаю о серьезном баге в дизайне почтовых баз Lotus Domino 8.5.2: не работает функция добавления x509 сертификата при добавлении пользователя в личную АК, если отправитель использовал non-lotus почтовую систему. Т.е. если сотрудник др. организации подписывает письмо и отправляет вам, используя при этом к примеру exchange, то вы, получив это письмо, пытаетесь добавить его в свою АК, чтобы потом иметь возм. отправлять ему шифрованные письма по стандарту s/mime - у вас ничего не получиться(. Сам с этим столкнулся, сделал service request на ibm - в итоге проблему признали, передали команде разработчиков с пометкой high-priority, но в наст. время ее исправлять не будут. Возможно, поправят в след. релизах. Я пока использую шаблон 8.5 - там, если добавляешь нового пользователя с сертификатом, то все ок, а если контакт обновляешь - тож не работает, надо удалить и добавить заново. Вот такие дела. Кстати, если много народу начнет обращаться в Ibm с этой проблемой, дело с исправлением бага значительно ускориться - это намек
You might have noticed that, of late, I've been undertaking a bit of an IT audit about here. Starting with my online security review and then, more recently, changing how I manage photos.
What's came out of the exercise is that I'm now "embracing the cloud". I keep telling Karen this and she says something along the lines of "Embracing the cloud? What the hell are you talking about!? Shurrup".
Somebody suggested I put all my passwords in the cloud. At first I thought that was crazy. Then, on reflection, realised it made perfect sense and now I have complete peace of mind that I'll never forget my passwords and can use them from any device (that supports 1Password).
Now I just can't stop myself from putting all the files that are important to me in to the Dropbox folder. Starting with all my Office document which relate to the running of Rockall Design - namely the one Excel file I've used for invoicing for the last 8 years, but also all Word invoice files and other bits.
Next I plan on moving local code files to Dropbox. Such as Flex project folders and Visual Studio folders. At the moment a daily backup task copies all local code files to the NAS box I mentioned. No reason, that I can see, why I can't just put them in Dropbox.
None of this is really cloud-computing though, is it. It's just fancy synchronised backup.
My only real use of cloud computing so far is that I've started using Google Docs to store "Excel" documents that I would traditionally have passed back-n-forth with clients to track project issues. I know there are better ways of doing this but some clients just prefer a spread-sheet and Docs makes this a lot easier than emailing versioned copies of a file.
There's no doubting the cloud will play an increasing part of our computing futures. For now though I'm only really happy if I know there's a copy of a file on a PC I can physically touch. I'm just a bit old-fashioned like that.
Dad has weighed in on the photo storage debate with an interesting point about longevity of the storage medium.
In his email was this photo of my Great Great Granddad, Solomon Howlett.
He was born in 1871, which, assuming he's about 19 when it was taken, makes the photo about 120 years old. As he pointed out, it would have spent some time out on display (as to have a photo of oneself back then was quite something) in sunlight but has spent most of its life in a tin somewhere. Either way it's survived two world wars.
Dad's point being - will my digital photos be around in the year 2130!?
It's a good question and one I can only guess at. Who knows where technology will be by then?
The other point he raised is storage costs. A photo in a tin for 100 years costs the price of the tin (free?). Using Dropbox for the next 120 years would cost me $12,000!
The easy answer is always "I'll be dead but then, so I don't care". But I do care. I want my great, great, great (etc) grandchildren to be able to see their ancestors. Something tells me printing photos and keeping them in a sealed tin (buried in the garden) is the best bet?
I have been interested in using what I have learned of Lotus Notes/Domino for quite some time now to put a database on the web for different uses, but doing so is a bit of a challenge. The challenge is finding sites that will host your database at a reasonable cost with all the functions needed, i.e. NAB, to really make it work like it should.
So, it would be great if IBM would provide some domain that the supporters of the product could use to upload their databases, create blogs, or create wikis that could help in promoting the product with friends and family.
Maybe this is already available and I have not had any luck in finding this, but if not I hope IBM steps up and shows their true support of the product we love. Afterall, according to Duffbert's recent post they have no shortfall of money to do so.

Allow any chair for a meeting to be delegated. Today, the meeting has to be cancelled and rescheduled by the new person, if the chair is gone or on vacation. Allow us to transfer the chair of the meeting. Currently only the chair can update the meeting notice in any way and the chair might be out sick.
