Like another poster, I was excited to see what the Filr integration with GW was going to look like but was disappointed to find out that it does not include the Net Folders file structure. This is a feature that is going to be wanted, just like originally for Filr to be able to share files stored on Net Files.

  • It's implemented as a marketing trick: we say it's in there, but nicely hidden for the user. Now, if he finds out how he can use it, he'll find it't just not what he expected so he'll never use it again. Same trick as the GW Vibe integration. Unusable and disappointing.

  • As long as there is no acces to Net Folders it's really unusable and makes no sense.

  • I talked to the Filr team and there is no limitation in Filr to be able to implement sharing from NetFolders, the needed API for this are already available. Without access to NetFolders the integration from GroupWise with File is kind of pointless. An there is no security issue in this as user are also able to just drag a file from a share in a mail message.
