Found this on the Stockman Forum. Could this be the news we are all waiting for? Tony LeRoy, IBM / Lotus have a big announcement for Monday 3 Nov.ÿ Could Jot (Sideware) be in on it ?ÿ Anyone have any further info ? NEW YORK, Oct 31 (Reuters) - International Business Machines Corp's (IBM) Lotus Development unit said it will introduce on Monday a set of applications and software tools based on Sun Microsystems Inc's (SUNW) Java programming language. The new products, developed under the code-name ''Kona,'' will be publicly unveiled at a press briefing on Monday hosted by Lotus president Jeff Papows at New York's Millennium Hotel in midtown Manhattan. Lotus has been tight-lipped about details of the release and has kept to itself even the name of the new software line. Industry sources said the package will be named ''e-Suite WorkPlace,'' and place the same emphasis on electronic commerce IBM has recently employed in marketing hardware and software. In August, the company launched the latest version of its AS/400 minicomputer line, which it dubbed the AS/400e, using the ''e'' to refer to electronic commerce. The company also recently released a new version of its DB2 database software that allows companies to link corporate information to the World Wide Web. In a program announcement for the launch, Lotus said its presentation will emphasize network solutions, including ways to quickly build business applications for the Internet as well as corporate networks. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
