Re: Webfacing out, EGL in

["Shannon ODonnell" <sodonnell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don't know if this information is too late for the cost question or not...

But I just got the following quote from my BP for my 520 (I already have
SWMA, this is just to extend it for another year)

One year SWMA = $1313.38 
QU2 = $480.00  (required by IBM to get V61...don't even know what it is....)
RDi = $795.00 

Total = $2588.38

Not for IBM i users Joe.  There is no charge for the new version of  
Studio.  If you don't

As I noted above, the Eclipse-based Studio IDE is free for i users.   
Even if it wasn't you could always use the PHPEclipse or PDT plug-ins.

In fairness - shouldn't one also point out that for deployment  
purposes the only "free" IBM supported application server is also  
"less capable"? (I don't know about slower so I can't comment).
