Wow.. 'am impressed..  

Stonebraker is CTO on consulting basis.  He currently has a startup the
initial product of which was DataAnywhere -- federated queries tools --
http://www.cohera.com.. They recently changed company direction and now
focus on B2B hype (as with most data companies have done in the recent
months).

I work with a former Illustra employee who worked with the early
datablades for Informix.

stay cool.
