It would seem that Paul Robichaux is no closer to getting hold of Lotus Workplace for evaluation purposes. Paul first posted of his experiences with IBM in December. Now, he’s a month further on:

Why is IBM being so tight with this technology? Sure, it might just be a matter of risk management; they don’t want customers to have bad experiences with the product. That’s understandable, although I note that Microsoft and Oracle (among others) restrict access to beta versions of their product, not the released versions. (As a side note, I find it a little offensive that IBM expects me to audition to gain the right to buy their product, but maybe that’s just me. At least there’s no swimsuit competition).
