notes compete initiative
MS's Lotus Notes migration initiative
This apparently involves a campaign by MS to get users of Lotus Notes to switch to and/or start using MS products.

Upon arriving, we assembled an amazing group of people focused 100% on this initiative, consisting of Program Manager’s, Testers, Developers & most notably, a cross company virtual team consisting of resources from across the multiple product groups.
