A Web VICARIUS Server obsistere conati Me Ex Installing Fenestra Lorem Ipsum Foundation, Sed ego vincisse

I’m working at a client site and needed to install windows workflow foundation so that I could so some SharePoint Designer work. (Ego nesciebam donec hodie quod SPD installs bysso sed revera indiget ad minus. NET 2.0 quod Fenestra Lorem Ipsum Foundation esse realiter utibile; Ego semper assumpta hi installed una cum SPD, sed denique fallor).

The client has a proxy server. No problem, I have credentials to get outside to the public Internets. I go to the usual place to download WWF (SPD dum me gere, cum a link). That download is really a bootstrap of sorts. It runs and figures out what else it needs to download. That second download process failed. It either does not try at all, or is somehow prevented from asking for proxy server credentials. It was a pretty hard crash, praebentes mihi verba:

Microsoft. NET Framework 3.0 has encountered a problem during setup. Setup did not complete successfully.

Ego conatus ut reboot et impendebantur 10 seconds trying to figure out if I could get it to ask me for proxy server credentials. I gave up and went here instead: .NET Framework 3.5 Pack servitium 1 (Pleni Sarcina).

Quod ego sarcina downloaded, et hoc tempore installed, haud problems.

Usura pondero in Microsoft.SharePoint.dll

Redgate .NET Reflector Michael Blumenthal has put up an article about alerts and views ("Which views can be used when Creating an Alert ?"), which is interesting on its own merits. Autem, I was even more interested to see how he methodically walks through the process of using Redgate’s .NET Reflector. Step by step, he shows how to use that tool track down how SharePoint determines whether a view on a list should be "subscribable" pro defectu melius verbum (he explains this much better than I do 🙂 ).

At this point in the SharePoint era, you’d almost have to be deaf and blind to have not heard or read about using that tool. It’s advanced stuff and my own sense is that it’s in many ways a tool of last resort. Autem, if you think you need it but don’t really know how, Michael’s write-up seems like a great tutorial on this subject.

SharePoint vaticinantur 2009

Ive 'lego pauci in retrospectives 2008 and this has got me to thinking about 2009. Here are my guesses at the future of SharePoint in 2009.

Parva Disclaimer

MVP sum, et ex SharePoint, I sometimes get a little advance information before it’s public. I am NOT making any such information public. I really haven’t been around long enough to be entrusted with that kind of stuff anyway.

Cum illo de via,, in praedictiones ...

INCITATUS

I believe that FAST will become a very hot topic in 2009. It’s already well known in the enterprise search community. Autem, quod quisque ludit in circuitu SharePoint 2009 will soon be interested in this product and what it can do for them. New consulting companies will spring up around it and existing partners will work and scramble to add it to its portfolio. This time next year, audivi fere omnes in synagoga et opinionem SharePoint QUADRAGESIMA.

FAST is targeted at large companies and that will continue. I think there’s at least an outside chance that Microsoft will release a more focused version of the product that is accessible to smaller companies. Failing that, they will open up the SharePoint search engine so that it can be customized along the lines that FAST can be customized. Verbigratia, FAST uses pipeline architecture for consuming content and indexing it. FAST admins and developers can assemble pipeline components per data source and even create new pipeline components. We don’t have this flexibility with SharePoint today. If FAST remains firmly targeted at very large companies, SharePoint quaerere recipient aliquod ieiunium features est scriptor.

SharePoint V.Next

Et erit in 2009.

I believe that it will provide us the ability to secure views on a list or document library. Hoc plus spei potest esse quam opinionem

Spero is mos suggero nonnullus melior suscipio pro users in finem SharePoint artifex, et maxime workflow.

Nescio multaque, I have been actively tracking what I do find here: http://delicious.com/pagalvin/SharePoint_O14.

Applications Lorem concionatorum creabit

Hodie, most SharePoint vendors seem to be gadget oriented. Take Bamboo aut Corasworks enim. They have a huge following and great portfolio of products. Autem, videntur illi quidem mihi gadgety vel elit / tool focused. Admin tools, workflow instrumenta, etc. That’s not a criticism at all because SharePoint can definitely use some gadgets.

In 2009, quibusdam mercatoribus (et forsitan se Bamboo, si hoc legere Recte) pariter ponam verticalized negotium applications in forma Templates, features, solutiones, etc. I’m thinking about the fabulous forty templates today but tailored to specific industries. I’m sort of surprised it’s not already exploited this way. SharePoint is a platform for delivering these kinds of things. What’s everyone waiting for? They won’t wait any longer in 2009.

Simul, Silverlight alius frigus. NET erit cibus novum effercio, melius et magis interesting gadgets.

Sharepointreviews.com erit communitas essentialium Catalogus haec producta.

User finem Focus

2009 videbunt cessum ultimum User ut focus in a major bloggers, organizations and Microsoft themselves. Marcus Tullius Cicero Finis User SharePoint.Com lusit magna munus in in 2008 and will continue to do so in 2009. End Users will begin to blog, Adjuvabit transmutare in user coetus minus technica venues et convincere etiam aliquis vel ordo ad finem deducere pura User focused colloquio.

Conferentiae, User coetus, Codex Campis, etc

Speaking of conferences – they will continue to expand and grow in number and focus. Aside from end user content, et permanere ad tincidunt ad tincidunt et administratores.

Rectum Conferentiarum erit committitur ad colligunt esse colloquia et dabit vivunt pascitur remotiora attendees qui non potest eligere vel non attendunt ad personam.

Liber collapse mos venues, quales Mike Lotter scriptor (al) SharePoint sabbati.

Ipsum quod futurum est, quia futurum tincidunt magna novus influxus, admins et finem users quisnam erit appetitus genus notitia istis provideat.

Socialis Computing

Demand for social computing features will rise. All things being equal, ut efficax coetus sociales implement consilia computandi melius et fortius eorum competitores.

Minor turmas suscipere horum features citius et efficacius, quam magna turmas.

Lorem ipsum dolor: cave

Optimus Actiones versus remediation

In 2008, multum SharePoint bloggers et Institutis et consumpta multum tempus remanens ex Microsoft se optime quorumdamve problematum solutionem (plerumque technicis problematibus).

There are still opportunities to define and foster adoption of best practices. Autem, Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet institutionem remanens ex nobis, configurare et curo SharePoint, turmas suas centeni et milleni sunt installing, Vestibulum ac moribus optime administrandi SharePoint sine illis adpropinquavit.

In 2009, a lot of companies are going to realize they have some deeply rooted problems to solve and will be looking to the elite members of the SharePoint community and Microsoft for help to fix them. I think this will extend well into 2010 et nequaquam excludunt umbraculum providere industria remediation officia turmas quod vere postulo utor SharePoint, sed quia laedendi male pauperum decisiones diluculo in eorum exsecutionem.

Matris redibit Navis

In 2009, Mater navis revertentes Bob Fox domum perducat.

Ultima Cogitata

Non committitur operantes SharePoint me in aliquo reali, donec Januarii 2007. Videtur mihi traditis SharePoint ipsa capax est et probatum sit amet aufertur biennium pretium. Puto quod multipliciter, non uere sibi de donec corrigas infrastructure update. Adhuc habet et cimices problems, sed per viam, venerunt omnes cum weve 01/2007. 2009 annus futurus sit in signum SharePoint.

Optimus Actiones SharePoint conferentia Feb 2-4, 2009

I’ll be doing two presentations at the SharePoint Best Practices Conference this February in San Diego.

Hoc fieri non satis est ut per DEFESSUS, ita omnibus conferentia visitem est, ingenue, terribilis. Autem, I do think this conference is special. There is zero marketing focus and the whole thing is about offering real-world practical advice on how to untangle some of the thorniest issues we face dealing with SharePoint. It’s not gigantic, so all of the speakers are very accessible (at least when they are not putting out fires back home). This means that in addition to the great formal presentations, you can have some great conversations and debates with virtually every speaker at almost any time, starting with communal breakfast up to late night imbibing at the hotel bar.

Beyond the speakers, you’ll have great opportunities to build and cement networks of other SharePoint users in the community. By the end of the last session and conference wrap-up, you’ll be energized and full of good ideas to bring back to work to help improve your SharePoint environment.

It’s well worth the investment.

The web site is top notch. Check it out for dates, registration, topics and speakers.

Perlegendis 1,000 In Blog 3 Quattuor Temporum Amissus vigilo septimanas in a volutpat vestibulum

Hac praeterita aestate, while I was working on two chapters for the best SharePoint social computing book ever, I began to get very far behind in my blog reading. I use Google Reader for my RSS stuff and when you have more than 1000 INLECTUS items, sicut dicit illud, "1000 ".

Super permaneo pauci weeks, I’ve been sitting down and systematically reading them and tagging them as I go for future reference (I use Delicious.com).

This past weekend I watched all of Lost, season four in a couple of sittings and catching up on 1000+ blog entries feels the same way.

I describe the basic approach for moving a workflow you create in one list to another list. The other list can be in the same site, eadem site collectione, seu diversae penitus firmam (e.g. a development ad productionem).

This is a complicated subject so I only covered a very basic scenario. Proxima septimana, I’ll write up a more useful real world example.

Quare non possum Facile Port SharePoint Designer Lorem Ipsum Solutions Ex Unus List ut Alius?

Mark Miller proposuit novissima mea End User orientatur SharePoint Designer Lorem Ipsum articulus sursum in eius site hic: http://www.endusersharepoint.com/?p=1008

Sea aggredior quaestionis providere, "Why can’t I easily port a SharePoint designer workflow from development to test?" In the process, I also give some insight into what SPD is actually doing behind the scenes when we use it to create a workflow solution.

Proxima septimana, I describe an End User friendly way to port SPD workflow from one server to another, or at least as End User friendly a solution as is possible given the state of the tool set.
