8.5 Certified
Despite some difficulties (we did not get the free certification vouchers initially), we took the time to get our certifications updated at Lotusphere. Hans-Peter and I took the "Using LotusScript in IBM Lotus Domino 8 Applications" to get back to advanced level and the brand new "IBM Lotus Notes Domino 8.5 Application Development Update" which was a bit of an adventure as there is no real certification prep guide or CertFX/SelfTest available yet and not all of us have worked with XPages extensively.
Apparently there is no "IBM Certified Advanced Application Developer - Lotus Notes and Domino 8.5" yet. I hope IBM will eventually introduce this certification title again. I recall it has taken some time in previous releases.
Update (02.02.2009)
Today I received my notification that I am an "IBM Certified Advanced Application Developer - Lotus Notes and Domino 8.5". So IBM has (rather quickly) determined the upgrade path here.

@2 That's hard to tell. I think I have only been using CertFX tests in the prep lab at Lotusphere so far. Some of the questions were quite close to the ones in the actual test, some questions had the wrong answer marked as the correct one and some had typos (which is really bad because in some questions the correct answer only differs from incorrect answers in only one letter). A co-corker mentioned that the Pass4Sure tests seem to be quite good as well.
