TAKE OUR NEW POLL | searchDomino

There's talk that an alternative, open-source Java application
development environment for Domino 6 may be in the works.  Would you
support this movement?

    >>VOTE HERE: http://www.searchdomino.com/poll

PREVIOUS POLL RESULTS: 
Lotus has announced that Domino 6 will not support Java Server Pages
-- a full-blown J2EE server like WebSphere is needed instead. Is this
a good move?

79%: No way! I want to run Domino, not WebSphere. (1674 votes)
11%: Maybe. Performance might be better, but I'm concerned about the
     cost. (239 votes)
 5%: Absolutely. It'll increase WebSphere adoption in Domino shops.  
     (112 votes)
 4%: It doesn't matter to me as long as Domino 6 is released on 
     time. (85 votes)
