I hope this orion + oracle deal is the same as the borland jbuilder + oracle
jdeveloper deal..... Oracle licensed Jbuilder technology, but Borland was
still free to take Jbuilder in any direction they wanted, AND oracle was
free to take "Jdeveloper" in any direction they wanted. The end result is
that Jdeveloper is way behind the curve because Oracle always buys
technology for which they do not have the ability to maintain. MEANWHILE,
Jbuilder is doing great and getting better and better....
I guess the question is "Just what kinda deal did Ironflare work out with
Oracle? Did Ironflare get wrapped into a straight-jacket for a few short
term buck$ ?"
