  • Subject: Websphere, Websphere Development Tools and Webfacing definitions

I'm really trying it hard to determine all the relationships and products
behind the term Websphere.  

What I think I know at this time is:

Websphere - is an IBM buzzword than can include one or several products that
may or may not be  provided as part of os/400 or could be a very expensive
charge item and that may be needed for some other strategic IBM products to
run with.

Websphere Development Tools- Is a group of some products (like CODE/400)
that may be useful in designing web apps.  

Webfacing - Must be some kind of screen scraper.

Is there a page that really explains all this or can someone in the List do
it.  I would like to know what is needed for each one to run (version, ptf,
etc.).  What products are there a charge for and where can they be
downloaded if free.  

I've tried to read some of the IBM websphere pages, but they just seem to be
a circle that changes terms from one page to another or defines one product
with another.  One page just dumped me back to a page to order software.

I think it would help others to clear some of the terms up here.

Thanks in advance.
