Sharepoint and Lotus Notes integration

Mie Ying has recently posted some informative material on Sharepoint and Lotus Notes integration.  One familar post talks about displaying Lotus Notes Document Titles in SharePoint Search Results.  The other deals with using Sharepoint 2007 to Index a Lotus Notes Database.  Pretty good stuff if you are tasked with integrating the two competing platforms.
