Templates, Templates Everywhere - If You Know Where to Look 
You may have noticed that IdeaJam now looks a bit different. That's because we are testing out some new themes that will be included with IdeaJam V2.0 coming in 2012. If you have any feedback about the new themes we would be happy to hear what you have to say. Please drop us a note.
Use this IdeaSpace to post ideas about LS09 Best Practices Sessions.

This is an update to the session that Bruce and I delivered at LS08, and it will include a bunch of updated content. We would be interested in any thoughts about what you might expect or like to see in this presentation, especially if you've seen earlier versions from Lotusphere, the VIEW, or ILUG. Of course, if you have some free templates you want to tell us about by all means speak up!
 
For a reference example, the slides from the ILUG08 edition are here
 
******* The Abstract ********
 
If you think the only application templates available for Notes are the ones that are bundled with it (and even if you already know better) it’s time you learned more about the many excellent free and open source Notes and Domino templates and where they come from. Join Kevin and Bruce for an updated and fast-paced look at some of the best templates from OpenNTF.org, trade publications, bloggers, and other little known sources. While it’s easy to build your own applications in Notes, it’s even easier, and usually more rewarding, to build on top of someone else’s. Whether you’re a developer, admin, or both, you’ll come away from this session ready to put these templates into action to become more productive, make your job easier, and impress your boss.

Kevin, we always need a review of the OSS support for Domino applications. In the past, you've been a trusted guide for things I never knew of, outside of OpenNTF.
2) Martijn de Jong1263 (27 Sep 2008)
This idea is linked with the Best Practices for new Notes Developers idea of Karl-Henry Martinson, but I don't see the link. Linked by mistake?
3) Kevin Pettitt1662 (28 Sep 2008)
@Martin - I linked it because of the "new developer" angle, since templates are a tremendous teaching tool among all their other uses. Sorry, I should have spelled that out clearly. Glad you're paying attention ;-).
4) Patrick Kwinten54996 (13 Jan 2010)
most of the templates on OpenNTF are not in a final, roll out stage I believe. OpenNTF should also define some UI guidelines so applications for end-users look and feel the same
