I have developped a Google Panel to monitor some IBM Lotus Quickplaces.

With this panel, one can: Scan every hours a set of Room Index to get the latest publucation Click on an entry to go an see the selected publication on the Quickplace The user-loging is handled automatically This use IE automation, so if you can access your quickplace with IE, you will be able to modify this panel and use it Some statistics are gathered to see the performance o accessing your QuickPlace

I am writing a technical note describing how to do such a development.

The outline of this note is

 1.2.Editing a panel JavaScript source
