What they&#8217;re attempting to do is basically offer up to the community of TADDM users the necessary <strong>FREE resources within IBM Tivoli (developers, SMEs, etc.) who will actually develop (or help you develop) a TADDM Sensor for you<\/strong>!!!!  No PMR process! No Technical Sales or Services person on-site!! WE WILL DO THE WORK FOR YOU!! <\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the objective here is to benefit the broader TADDM community and the sensors that are developed are contributed back for all to use.  <em><strong>The focus, while it may be small, is a HUGE MONUMENTAL STEP for any big software vendor in my opinion.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Additional details on the sensor day from the TADDM Community blog <a href=\"https:\/\/www-951.ibm.com\/blogs\/tivoli\/entry\/first_ever_sensor_day_for_new_taddm_community\">here<\/a>. Join, participate in (or just lurk) the TADDM Community <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ibm.com\/developerworks\/spaces\/taddm\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Before I had even known about this, I have been working on establishing a similar community for TBSM. Now that I know we&#8217;re willing to make this kind of investment in the community, stand by for how we&#8217;ll follow on the coat tails of the TADDM Community!!! I envision similar community driven development days for TIP Portlets, TIP\/TBSM and TCR Charts and Reports, Custom Canvas Widgets, Custom Canvas Dashboards and other core TBSM Content and\/or integrations!  Interested?
