A win would have done a lot for us, being four back and having L.A. for four at home.

What's still missing is a tool or service that can migrate the Domino application logic. Domino still is an awesome rapid application development tool. There frankly is nothing (like it) on the market.

To be able to go nine innings was completely amazing. That was definitely a little different, going straight over to the catcher and going back to the mound to shake hands.

It would seem that Microsoft is accelerating its efforts to encourage the Domino base to move to Exchange. It would be reasonable to take all the tools and services they have that encourage customers to move to Exchange and put a fresh coat of paint on them.

The only mystery here is what took them so long. They've had a bunch of migration tools out there for a long time and they haven't been revised in ages.

Clearly, Microsoft is accelerating its attempt to get the Notes/Domino base to come to Exchange.

It feels really good to be able to get that first one under the belt. I just was fired up too much for my first start. It wasn't my normal velocity.

Microsoft could have been a lot more aggressive years ago. It's taken quite some time for the company as a whole to recognize it has a significant opportunity here.

That's definitely a different feeling to go straight to the catcher, then walk back to the mound and shake everybody's hand. I'm giving effort. I just try to stay really calm. I find that works for me. If I stay calm and relaxed, my body does what it's supposed to do.
