IBM U2 Marketing does provide some information to the U2UG board regularly. You can send any questions you have for IBM to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (IIRC) > Are they looking for salespeople to market MV? They do have some excellent sales people related to U2, but I suspect there might still be IBM sales reps who don't seem to have heard of it. The issue is that U2 is sold to VARs. One of the questions the U2UG board has asked IBM is about their plans for getting new VARs. If there is no obvious external marketing outside of the VAR or broader MV space, how do you attract new VARs? While the board has no specific answer to the question, we do have reason to be optimistic that this a question that IBM as already (before we asked) been addressing. > I think we have some good ones on this list! This list, u2-community, cdp (comp.databases.pick) plus jBASE, OpenQM, and Revelation lists. There might be other discussion lists related to MV/Pick too. Cheers! --dawn -- Dawn M.
