I've received some interesting requests for eProductivity but none as original as the one I received this morning:

Re: eProductivity for Lotus Notes and GTD

Hello from Denmark :-)

I have told Santa that I would really really like to have a copy of eProductivity for Lotus Notes.

He said that I have been a good boy so I should contact you directly to request a preview....

I've had people contact me directly or via a friend to get into the eProductivity preview program, but this is the first request that I know of that solicited Santa's help.  A novel approach to be sure.

So, I responded:

You got my attention. Mrs. Mack told me to tell you to ask Santa to stop by and pick up the copies on his way to your house. ;-)

As you know, we are in the last stages of beta. Please tell me a little about yourself and your organization's use of GTD & Notes and we'll see what we can do.

Eric

PS. May I turn your email into a blog post? It was great.

We exchanged emails today and, as a result, I've learned a little more. Apparently, this person owns several businesses and recently made the decision to switch from Outlook/exchange to Lotus Notes. He's a big GTD fan and hopes to transform his companies by encouraging his managers and employees to use Notes and GTD for collaboration and productivity.

I couldn't have described a more ideal candidate for eProductivity.

Needless to say, I invited him to participate in the eProductivity preview program.

Perhaps I should send a thank-you note to Santa?
