As hopefully most developers are aware, at the beginning of the year Oracle changed the licensing terms for Java JREs (Java Runtime Environment), requiring a paid commercial license for any commercial use.

As you’ve hopefully seen, we’ve relaunched XSnippets as OpenNTF Snippets. There are quite a few changes, some decisions made that are less than traditional, but driven by some key factors.

This doesn’t affect my enthusiasm for and effort around Domino and Connections, and there is plenty going on with those over the next couple of months. I’ll still also be involved as a team leader of the Think Big Challenge,

Just before Christmas Jesse Gallagher added directory download support to OpenNTF’s p2 Repository Browser. This means projects like OpenNTF Domino API can be installed into Domino Designer directly from a URL rather than going to OpenNTF and manually downloading the relevant release.

For a while I’ve been playing around with Domino on Docker, thanks to Tim Clark’s blog posts and, more recently, Karsten Lehmann’s GitHub repo. The next step after upgrading my local Domino server and Notes Client to 10.0.1 was to add Docker images for 10.0.1 and the GA App Dev Pack as well as 10.0.0
