This chapter will cover the new features in the Lotus Notes 8.0 and 8.5 release. The first sections will cover the 8.0 client and the latter sections the 8.5 client. In the following sections, we will take a quick look at some of the major new features offered in the Lotus Notes 8 client. These include: User interface enhancements Mail enhancements Calendar enhancements Contacts (formerly known as the personal address book) In addition to these "user visible" features, the Lotus Notes 8 client is now built upon an open standards Eclipse-based architecture. This architecture allows greater flexibility of the client for customization and fits better into a service-oriented architecture (SOA) than previous releases. Lotus Notes 8 also provides a more consistent experience across a greater variety of operating system platforms. For example, the Lotus Domino 8 server software runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Lotus Notes 8 client support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 WS is currently planned for the Lotus Notes 8 code stream. The Notes 8 client also offers a consistent installation process for both the Microsoft Windows operating system users and Linux desktop users. Enhancements in Lotus Notes 8 for Linux include integrated instant messaging and presence awareness, the Lotus Notes Smarticons toolbar, and support for color printing.
