Greg,

I think an increase is certain.  IBM also just announced an increase in V3 and 
V4 prices.

Historically, a change in version (from V1 to V2) engenders an increase in 
license fees.  I asked my IBM rep if this would be so for the upcoming new 
version, and after he spent some time (he said) asking around he could provide 
no answer.

Has anyone else asked and been answered? 

Thanks,
