It means the company thought their stuff wasn't going to be all that attractive so they didn't create a lot of copies. The Net explosion has created a need so great that if you have anything to do with the appropriate Net buzz words, you get all kinds of inquiries and requests for demos. Unless ODIS can create a presence within the matrix of the big boys they won't be going far. There is no way they can stand alone. They have to piggyback or inter-operate in some synergistic way with the entrenched technologies.

I used to be an expert on this company, but not any longer. Long ago I predicted that they would have to change into an entirely different entity in order to realize some degree of success. They are apparently in the process of doing this, but the details are opaque to the outside. Maybe that's just as well. I hope they're taking the Excelon-Javelin-Objectstore XML IDE package and finding their place in the matrix.
