As you may know, I am Moderator of the Google+ XPages Community (and Curator of Collaboration Today). Together with the owner Rob Bontekoe, my old XPages teacher, the Google+ XPages community was founded some years ago.
The aim of this community is to promote XPages as a development tool and sharing information about XPages, Notes Domino and IBM XPages for Bluemix.

At this time, the community has 506 members and is still expanding!
If you are not yet a member of this community and want to be kept informed of the latest news and if you want to share news about Notes Domino and XPages then join the Google+ XPages Community now.
The more members the more news and the more it is shared within our amazing community.
