I like your idea for preemptively locking designs you think you'll be working on and then keeping Sametime open. @RobW I can't speak for Henry, but I was talking about the Lotus Domino built-in Design locking capabilities first introduced in R6 and described here: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/domhelp/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.designer.domino.main.doc/H_LOCKING_A_DESIGN_ELEMENT_OVER.html There is also a popular third party locking solution on the market. -Peter Thanks for the comments fellows.

Rule is, Lock what you are and might be working on. If you see an element that is locked, use Sametime to ask the other developer if they will unlock it for you.
