I'm pleased to have been a part of that history. I came aboard during
classes at Western New England College, when the then Microrim product,
R:Base 5000, was offered as the true relational database and was
devastated when they said they were not going to continue with it.
Thanks to Razzak, it has survived and prospered. Long live R:Base!

Not to mention:
. There are full-time employees who have jobs because of R:BASE
. There are developers who live pretty good lives because of R:BASE
. There are others who have gotten full-time jobs at institutions,
without having a college degree, because of R:BASE
. There are mission critical operations and applications serving
industrial needs because of R:BASE (some have tried to migrate,
wasted hundreds and thousands of dollars, and still using R:BASE)
. R:BASE has created many opportunities and will continue to bring
productive database development to the forefront.
. R:BASE Technologies will continue to provide the best of R:BASE,
and support those with a vested interest in R:BASE, and live up
to their highest expectations.
Yes, we are very proud of our history and our accomplishments!
The best is yet to come.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
