David,
Ah thanks. Indeed they are not supported and it is hard to imagine
they
will be supported for a while. ESRI has indicated in the past that
they
intend to provide an open mechanism to access the file geodatabase
and that
is still likely to happen at some point. However, I think this
would be
quite a few months away at best.
Hmmm, and if ESRI provides it, then, like SDE, it probably won't be
available for OSX (or other linux platforms?). Bleh.
