Still off-topic -- ignore if not interested in history of databases There are two links I made explicit -- a legal relationship between companies, with one buying another and any aspect of the code migrating from one place to another. There are numerous instances of people moving from one company to another. I am unaware of the entire Seattle Labs forming Cosmos, but definitely Revelation came directly from Cosmos. Thanks for the tip -- I'll check on that. --dawn Received on Tue Apr 27 2004 - 00:08:42 CEST
