Some recent OpenNTF Statistics

Niklas Heidloff | 1:01:19 AM Thursday, March 18, 2010

Three weeks ago (2/24) more than 1000 releases were downloaded on a single day. These are more downloads than we've seen for one day since we started to track these numbers in 2004.

On 3/2 we had for the first time more than 18.000 page visits per day, followed by 19.000 page visits one day later.

Since the OpenNTF Alliance was established in May 2009 more than 25 new (non-IBM) developers have contributed code to OpenNTF who had never contributed before.

This year 77 releases have been contributed so far which is 80% more than in the same period of time in the previous year.

OpenNTF thanks everyone who has helped to achieve these numbers !

Ulrich Krause: Get the most out of Lotusscript - Richtext under the Microscope

Ulrich Krause | 12:30:25 AM Friday, March 12, 2010

The project Cebulon is some kind of a sandbox to try (and sometimes fail) advanced techniques to use the C-API core functions of Lotus Notes and Domino from Lotusscript. There are a lot of code snippets you can find on the web to open a file dialog or to show a progressbar and so on. But did you ever try to change the settings of a document header or footer in the background using an agent? Not an easy one, is it? The $Header / $Footer items are RichText items and you cannot simply use ReplaceItemValue to modify the content.
