Buyants, this is somewhat academic, but I can't help it. I'm Ants obsessed. I have a bad case of ACD. I'm a little unclear on the transition point(ACS/ADS). 4Js bought and rebranded the ADS as Genero. Now they have had the time and money to develop this, but it isn't setting the world on fire. I always thought the biggest reason for it not selling well, although some information about Ric disputes that a little, was the time and money to do migrations. Why most companies out there are loath to change databases. Because of the time you're down and the money you have to throw at programmers. As you pointed out, going to a relative unknown with an uncertain future sure didn't help. What I'm really curious about is this line.

"They finally realized that in their efforts to process data going to other databases in the ANTS database, they had actually developed"

What exactly do you mean by that? If you're saying what I think you're saying, I'm unfamiliar with that story.
