Lotus Development plans to release the next
version of its Java-based applications suite in September, with a focus on the
PC and a promise that it's not leaving the NC behind. Coming two months before
the release of Microsoft Office 2000, eSuite WorkPlace and DevPack 1.5 brings
together those features and enhancements that the company couldn't put into the
first release of the product line, said Adam Banker, marketing manager for Internet
applications at Lotus.
