Jerry,
Could you explain some of the techinical difficulties involved in
porting such a complex product between various versions of Unix?
Since Rational's reference platform is Solaris (AFAIK), what makes it
so difficult to port from Solaris to <insert Unix variant here>.
What, in your opinion, would be the difficulty in porting such a
product to Linux, and do you know if Rational is getting a demand
from their customers to do so?
Side note: I find it interesting that they're getting enough demand
for Tru64, but not Linux?!
