I think the problem WAS (apparently the people involved have moved on) 
that the top people in the DB2 group (of which U2 is a part) were very 
heavily emotionally involved in DB2 itself.

They've now been replaced with people who are a bit more 
business-minded, and who realise that the U2 databases are valuable.

Maybe U2 will do an Informix on IBM (remember when Informix took over 
Ardent it turned into a reverse-takeover, and it was Informix that came 
off worse :-)
