Any ideas on what can be done realisticly and quickly to meet Nasdaq Small Cap requirements ? You raise money by selling something. They have a couple of assets. One is a support and maintenance revenue stream. The other is SQLBase, which has already effectively been mortgaged to CA. I would include SQLWindows and its successors, heirs and assigns, only I can't see anybody in 1998 actually buying a new licence for the product, now that Earl has gone. CA will probably "buy" SQLBase and its support-and-maintenance revenue stream to square the debt - I doubt that they would need to put up additional funds to do this - which effectively leaves The SQLWindows maintenance base. If I was buying, I would probably value it at around 0.5 to 0.7 of revenue, as it would form a good basis for i) "trailing-edge" project and consultancy to customers who just want "one more app", and ii) a sound prospect database for sales of products that will be around just a little longer. I haven't done my sums on this, but I don't think it will be enough. david
