Tom, thanks for leading another round of SOLID GOLD hits for My developerWorks. GREAT JOB everyone!
I've worked on Operation team that manage issue for a big implementation of Lotus Connections 2.5 (w3 connections)
LC 2.5 is better than older version, however 50% of issue reported by user are about Web Browsers version supported LC (http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg27016547#wb). Users are still using old IE versions ( IE < 6) or newer IE (IE > 8). If users are facing LC issues, advise them to check browsers versions supported by LC.
Tom, I'm sorry, there are some typos in my previous comment

Tom, another solid delivery for developerWorks. I'm looking forward to the diversity that a multi-lingual experience will bring to our community, and have my inline translator plug-in installed on my Firefox browser so I can follow along! Nice job Tom and team!
Kleber, thanks for the advice on browser support. Results from our development and testing, plus the work we've done directly with customers supports what you are saying. I appreciate your post. Looking forward to staying in touch. Tom.
