What is the IBM Domino Community Server
Tags :ibmdomino community server
IBM has recently announced the IBM Domino Community Server edition (package?) to help you test non-production applications without needing a server license
IBM® Domino® Community Server for Non-Production will be a nonwarranted license option that enables your organization to test applications in a non-production environment. This offering will provide students, developers, and vendors with the capability to test their custom IBM Domino applications.
.One of the keywords above is that it is nonwarranted. I was able to find this pdf file on the IBM site that defines everything you need to know about the IBM International License Agreement for Non-Warranted Programs. But that really answers nothing Nonwarranted has a much deeper meaning. In order to get a bug properly noticed by IBM, it would need to be recreated in a production environment. Which makes no sense since the code should be exactly the same.
When installing the IBM Domino Community Server you will be using the Utility server option, This means that there is no user mailboxes allowed on the server.
I look to this as a fast and affordable way for companies, independents and even academics to test writing and working with Domino without much capital costs.

IBM has also made some waves about Domino futures including IBM Applications on Cloud that I will blog about shortly.
