OK. I don't know if that's just hot air on IBM's part, but at least I
can understand this. I wonder if it's been long enough for them to
see where the revenue went.

Without inferring anything about revenue streams, we on the outside of
IBM can easily see where they have allocated resources. ADTS = bug
support only, and good luck convincing them you've found a bug. RDi =
Active development of new features, active solicitation of new
features via RFE, active support team, frequent bug fixes and a stated
goal to maintain concurrency with HLL and SQL functionality advances.
