Understood. I believe the Domino Blog has given us that statement of
direction - there are no plans to make it work. Oh well, there may not
really be a current demand for NSFDB2 on System i anyway (I wonder if there
is really a demand for the other platforms as well...).
Back in October 2005, Walter said that "All UDB requirements for NSFDB2
(that exist today) have been provided in V5R3 OS/400."

So it sounds like there have been more requirements...
Would any lurkers up in Rochester like to comment? ;)

We have used JDBC to move data back/forth between Domino and iSeries DB2
and that works well.
Being able to store data directly in DB2 tables is where we should be
heading though. Unfortunate decision by IBM and the Domino blog mentions
that the IBM iSeries crowd bought into that decision -- it would be nice
to hear from the iSeries side to hear the reasons. If DB2 UDB on the
iSeries is drastically different that DB2 on other platforms I can
understand why DB2 implementation on the iSeries is delayed -- but at
least provide a statement of direction...
