Several weeks ago Serenity Systems International (SSI) began an Early Support Program (ESP) for the Serenity Virtual Station (SVISTA). The results of the ESP have been extremely positive. In fact, 80% of the respondents to a survey indicated that the products are nearly ready for commercial release. SSI is now prepared to move forward with this program.
The ESP is still restricted to registered eComStation users. To participate, users should log on to the site. At which time they will be at this page and can follow the steps to participate in the ESP (see Serenity Virtual Station Early Support Program: Sign up for the Early Support Program)
This week, (April 4), Serenity Systems is adding the first drop of the OS/2 - eComStation host version of this product, SVISTA/2 (note, this is early release, time limited software). Later this week we will also be updating the Linux host. The Windows host is still available. Later this week we may add the FreeBSD host, as well.
By the end of the month it is likely we will move this program to a public beta. Depending of the performance of the beta program, we look forward to delivering product this summer.

It seems that big eCS costumers do not want to disclose that they are using the system. This happens not only with russian but with european companies.
Of course, it's necessary support the system and publish more succesful stories of eComStation usage..
That's why we are ready to publish success stories in our Solutions based on eCS section without mention of company's name.

Looks like we will eventually get an up-to-date fully functional Lotus Notes Client that will run on OS/2. Stefan Pettersson, technical manager for IBM's Lotus division in Sweden, has been quoted as saying that there will be a Java client of Lotus Notes some time during the second half of 2004.
The quote is from an article on Infoworld that talked about IBM's efforts to get MS Office running on Linux.

We would like to inform you that Lone Peak Automation has decided to immediately release all of their shareware products as freeware. The programs included are UPS Monitor, a series of programs that interface to a large number of uninteruptible power supplies and HOUSE/2, a home automation program using X10 devices and supporting three popular X10 controllers.
All registration limitations will be removed and programs will be fully functional once the work is complete. The UPS Monitor programs are already available and the HOUSE/2 programs will follow soon.
We want to take this opportunity to thank all of the OS/2 and eComStation users who have registered these products in the past. You have made these products possible through your support and we will not forget you.
Lone Peak Automation will NOT cease operation nor will we abandon our products. Lone Peak Automation will continue to support our products as needed. We will do our best to solve any problems that may arise. Registered users will obviously get priority for this support.
Any new users who find our programs useful and would like to see accelerated development and/or support are invited to contribute to the development effort on a purely voluntary basis.
Over the last few years, Lone Peak Automation has released a number of new and unique programs for OS/2 and eComStation. Just a few samples:
Cumulus is a weather station program that has been running non-stop for over two years and reports weather to the Citizen's WeatherNet on the internet. You will require to purchase your own weather station but Cumulus is free and available upon request. See our new website for information.
We have recently released free REXX libraries and utilities for image conversion and processing and also released a utility to read EXIF image data from digital camera pictures. You can now easily do batch processing on your digital camera pictures with just a few simple REXX commands. Samples and full documentation is included.

Due to the fact that there is now more office applications available for OS/2 using either 16-bit windows version or together with Odin or using the latest version of OpenOffice Beta for OS2. We would like to ask you what office application that you run.
For those of you that have participated earlier in polls at OS2 World will hopefully notice that we have started to use a new poll script developed by StuffedGuys. Among other this new scripts offers the possibility of submitting suggestions on future new polls and as well a poll archive.

Early Support Program for Serenity's new virtual machine product family, Serenity Virtual Station(tm). Press-release:
New Virtual Machine Application Launched, Friday January 30, 12:47 pm ET
LEWISVILLE, Texas, Jan. 30 (PRNewswire) -- Serenity Systems International (SSI), Lewisville, TX, has announced an Early Support Program for its new virtual machine product family, Serenity Virtual Station(tm) (SVISTA).
The SVISTA(tm) products will provide the broadest support for operating systems in the industry. "Our support for Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and IBM OS/2 as hosting platforms demonstrates that accomplishing this objective is in sight," according to Bob St.John, Director of Business Development for SSI. He continued, "We expect to conclude our Early Support Program and release the retail product in early 2Q04. We are prepared to support the product in service engagements right now."
In the first release, SVISTA hosting platforms include Windows NT4, Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows 2003 Server, Linux 2.4 kernel distributions, IBM OS/2, and FreeBSD. Guest operating systems support includes Linux, Windows, DOS, and IBM OS/2.
The IBM OS/2, Linux, and FreeBSD support is unique in the industry. It offers OS/2 users a new tool to support the implementation new software strategies and activities. SSI is a software OEM and ISV which publishes eComStation, based on IBM's OS/2 operating system.
"We believe there are significant opportunities for the shrink wrap product, but these same products make a great deal of sense in support of services engagements. Our focus in the services area will be on providing server based products. These offerings and technologies could be a significant business solution to service providers with the appropriate skills sets," according to St.John.
In preparation for this support, IBM Global Services will be among the first organizations to provide service, support, training, and certification on the new products. Other organizations with plans to provide services later this year include NorthLAN Solutions, St.Paul, MN, 6PAC Consulting, Hamburg, Germany, and Starfire, Lawrence, KS. Plans for retail distribution and developing the reseller channel would be executed by Mensys.
"We've been working with these people on this project for over a year. They bring remarkable skills, software tools, and account knowledge to our initial engagements. And they will help us develop a channel for fee service providers which will deliver value and savings to the end user organization," according to St.John.
