Is that by any chance the same as Forte XP?<g>

In a less wise-ass vein, I ask seriously, how did it test with customers? What the SI threadies think about it doesn't matter, most of us can't even understand the press release. The question is, here's this nice package of stuff that's supposed to enable a new paradigm. One would imagine that market research was done to establish the demand for it before it was announced (If not, then it IS Forte XP).

The Gartner blurb was agnostic and made no mention of Sun. For this to be meaningful, adopters have to make announcements too. Who's buying?
