...I wait for each issue of (LDD Today) more eagerly than for any print magazine because of the high quality of the articles, and the fact that they are immediately applicable to the work I do. Thank you so much for your support and guidance in design, administration, and general Notes/Domino lore.

Great articles, great tips, free example database downloads...REALLY GREAT discussion forums! ...(W)ith your help and the tips we get from (your site) we will continue to develop Sweden's second largest city's official homepage...Notes/Domino is the best product around. Your site on the Internet is the best. I always find what I'm looking for. May you be around forever!

Just wanted to let everyone know that (your site) is fabulous! I use it all the time to solve problems. The most useful feature for me is the Domino discussion area. I can usually do a search to find the solution that I am looking for within a few minutes! ...Please remember that there are many happy users out there like me. We have come to depend on your valuable site!

...(Your site) has always been a showcase/proof of what you can do with Domino, it's also a great inspiration source of how to implement various solutions using Domino.

Great article (Domino Designer 6 technical overview)!! I am very excited about using R6 when it rolls out here at my company! Can't wait to develop!!!

I want to thank you for the Notes site. I am interviewing with a company this week who is using Lotus Notes and since I'm new to the program, I thought I would get as much information as possible. Your site has been extremely helpful in providing me with information to help me with the interview process. I will be checking back often.
Ed Dumire

...(T)hank you for the excellent articles published on your site. Over the last year they have become my first port of call when I need to implement or understand some of the functionality of Lotus Notes.

Great article ("Keeping Time: How Notes handles time zones and daylight-saving time") ...I've been developing in Notes for 2 years.This article really gave me the technical details I needed to code a new application utilizing varying date/time zones. Thanks.

Excellent article ("Domino 6 Technical Overview")!! I want this product now! I'm struggling with third party products to solve many of the problems that Domino 6 has addressed.
Joakim Högberg
Örebro Kommun

On the (LDD Today) article (Network Compression in Domino 6)—I've already forwarded link to ISSL, Johnny in BT/CIO office, Frances who runs Alliances working on channel deals, and asked Ray to ensure all the NotesBench consortium vendors to be aware of it. It will help them sell the N/D 6 proposition for us. I also heard great things about your (Lotus Discovery Server) article—congrats!

I learned how to develop and maintain databases almost entirely through a combination of the help menu, and the excellent Notes forum. It is an excellent way for people to learn from each other...
Peter Rolufs

Congratulations...As a former technical writer and member of the STC (now a senior Notes developer), I'm probably one of a small number of your readers who can truly appreciate your distinguished honor. The STC is an excellent professional organization and your R5 Special Edition certainly deserved its special recognition...
Nathaniel Kanner
Ziff-Davis

This is excellent information ("Generating sequential numbers in replicated applications") that is very well written and is extremely pertinent to an application we are developing. This article saves us considerable research and design time for such a common function. We will certainly be putting this reusable component to good use. Many thanks for a fine job in designing and documenting reusable code.

I can't tell you how many times the Notes/Gold forum has come to my rescue, but I know it's in the hundreds. Thank you so much for keeping it going—you're doing a fantastic job.
Craig A. Benson

Just wanted to drop a quick note to tell you how helpful it is to have the Fix List database available to us. Having all the fix lists in one place that I can search for specific issues, to determine if they are known and/or fixed, is an invaluable time saver. Three cheers for implementing such a useful tool.
Shannon Tuten

Fantastic—just about everything you need to build an e-commerce application using Domino!
Keith Joyce

Thanks for having this site with all the samples available. I am very new to Lotus Notes development, by download(ing) the samples and learn(ing) from it, I did get my work project done. I greatly appreciate the site and individuals who post their samples.
Pauline Do

...(I)t's so terrific how you really listen to what we have to say. No other members on any forum get such treatment! You do spoil us... ;-)
Jessica Stratton

...I often turn to (your site) as my first or second resource in trying to resolve an issue. Enhanced user-specific tailoring (such as My Forum) is exactly what I (need)...You have my praise and thanks!

I really can't say enough good about this Web site! It has proven most useful in helping me learn Notes and be more productive. Thank you so much for the invaluable tool that this site has been.
Kevin Throneberry

Just wanted to tell you guys that although I (and the whole notes.net community) was very apprehensive about the new Web site, that the new look is still user friendly even after a few months of regular viewing...
Giulio Campobassi

I have been a frequent visitor of this forum since the past two years. It's great place to share Notes/Domino related ideas and problems. As resource to the development and admin community it is invaluable. It becomes more so because we get responses from IRIS employees...
Pronam Chatterjee

Love the QMR/QMU Status area...It's great!
