When life does a priority interrupt
Mon, May 14th 2012 7:30a Ben Langhinrichs The past six months have been difficult. As some of you know, my father is dying. I don't talk about it a lot (heck, I haven't been talking about anything a lot recently), but he is at the hospice stage now, so it is only a matter of time. The whole experience has been very tough on my mom as well. They've been married fifty-three years, so it is emotionally rough even imagining him gone, but the care giving role also takes a great toll. I have a brother who is a nurse who lives near them, an [read] Keywords:

CoexEdit 3.0 Step 1 - add magic
Tue, Feb 21st 2012 10:07a Ben Langhinrichs CoexEdit has been a slow but steady product for Genii Software. It hasn't had the great success of the Midas Rich Text product line or of CoexLinks, but people have used it for many different projects in many different companies. Slow and steady isn't good enough, so I asked lots of questions of customers and developers and partners: What does CoexEdit need? The answer was fairly simple, given how many people know what I do. CoexEdit needed more magic. Developers didn't want to mess with the [read] Keywords: rich text

Those evaluating CoexEdit will see something new
Thu, Feb 16th 2012 8:10a Ben Langhinrichs Starting today, those requesting evaluation licenses for CoexEdit will not get an eval license for Version 2.x, but instead one for 3.x. The latest interim candidate for Version 3.0 is now available for download, but it will only work with a 3.0 license, so if current customers want to give it a whirl before the gold release (due by the end of the month), you will need to request an eval license. Over the next few days, I will be posting demos of how CoexEdit works with XPages, and why you will [read] Keywords: xpages

Zealotry annoys me
Wed, Apr 6th 2011 4:20p Ben Langhinrichs Look, plenty of people think XPages may be the savior riding in on a camel to rescue Lotus Domino, and maybe it is and maybe it isn't. All I know for certain is that anytime somebody gets up an excess of zeal, I get nervous. Java will solve all problems, except the pile it introduces. Ruby on Rails will change the world, except when it can't. I've got a question for those who think we're ready to throw out every non-XPages app and replace all the "crap" written before.

Thu, Mar 24th 2011 12:56p Ben Langhinrichs Several of you have been playing with our new Domino Limits page design, which I rolled out today right before posting my earlier post. (Compare with the old page - cringe.) Along with the ability to comment on individual limits is a matching ability to tweet individual limits. It is not included in all documents yet as I am slowly making tweetable versions, but it gives you the ability to answer a question on twitter by simply: 1) copying the person's username (e.g., blanghinrichs) , 2) search [read] Keywords: domino
