The centerpiece of Lotus' announcements will be a Web services enablement kit that allows developers to take components of Lotus collaboration applications and embed them as Web services in other Lotus applications or in non-Lotus Web applications. For example, a developer could take a feature in Lotus Sametime that lets users know if others are online and embed it in an online exchange application to let traders know who is involved in a given auction.
