SameTime Question
Currently, we have a SameTime 6.5.1 server running on top of Domino 6.5.2 on Windows 2000. All my other servers are Domino8.5HF1 running on Windows 2003 SP2. We currently only use the IM function. With the certificate expiration issue this past weekend, we've decided to look into upgrading our Sametime environment. It looks like I have a server I can use for this (it's previous function has been retired). My question is, should I install SameTime 8.02 on top of Domino 8.02 now or wait for SameTime 8.5 so it can run on top of Domino 8.5? How long is it going to be before SameTime 8.5 arrives?

I would probably go ahead with the 8.0.2 option for now. 8.5 will probably be 3Q, but that's just a guess.
Agree go with Sametime 8.0.2. 8.5 if we're lucky will be Q3.
Also for IM entitlement don't expect much in 8.5
FWIW, I heard today that ST 8 will not run on a Domino 8.5 server.
@3 ST8 will not run on domino 8.5 that is correct.
OK, thanks for the recommendations. It looks like we'll go with V8.02 for now. I was just looking at how nice it would be to have all my Domino servers on the same version for a change - lol.
@Bruce yeah good luck with getting them all on the same version!! Hey, weren't Sametime and Domino supposed to be kept at the same versions - i.e. when Domino 8.5 came out a Sametime 8.5 was going to be available? Yeah, that lasted just for the 7.0 release... :)
