ask IBM what their intentions are with U2 in light of this, but I
suspect that the PE editions will be the extent of the free offering.
We shall see. Cheers! --dawn

Hard to compete when others such as MS SQL and Oracle are offering free versions too. |
that is true of other ISPs as well. I feel the barometer falling in
the database industry. cheers! --dawn

Not an ISP, but definitely a resource. They are heavily involved in QM. That said they can do all major MV DB's |
that your average web developer is working with a typical ISP who is
likely to provide MySQL, but not likely others. Of course you can get
virtual servers and do it yourself or find someone to host pretty much
anything you want.

We'll see how aggressive IBM is. If DB2 doesn't show up in Debian, Mandrake or RH as a bundled package in 12 months, then it may not take off like they want it to. It's too easy to use another DB that's already bundled with Linux. If they can jump through the hoops to get on the Debian maintainer list and also convince RH packagers to bundle DB2, then they may have a very successful launch. I just wish that Ladybridge understood the importance of that as well, for OpenQM. Of course, it also helps to have OSS applications to use with the DB. Otherwise, how can the industry really review or promote the DB? I know that the MPL-licensed MvCMS project is underway @ U2UG, but I have a feeling that it is going to be a while before anything reviewable comes out of it. Besides, it's U2 based not DB2.

"Hybrid Relational" and "XML" database features?
Is 'hybrid relational' IBMspeak for MV? Anyone involved with U2 ever heard
this before?

UniVerse I downloaded the client and server Personal Editions for Windows on
January 10th. It appears from the download that this has been available or the
work was done to make it available in May of 2005. I recently installed the
Redhat version which as well had May 2005 date stamps on it.
However, the documentation is quite lacking for the RedHat download. I've just
created a page that needs a lot of love for installing UniVerse Personal Edition
on RH-FC3
