   Hmm. I'm on 9.2.0.4 Standard Edition on VMS 7.3-2 on Alpha. It was
certainly supported in the past and they still appear to be taking my
support money :-)

   Before that I was on 8.1.7 Standard Edition, which was also supported
at the time.

   Given how inaccurate the support matrix is for the Alpha version 
perhaps the "not planned" for Itanium is a mistake?
