So how about this for EGL?

<IBM>
Enterprise Generation Language 

To increase the flexibility of IBM's Software Delivery Platform, IBM is 
introducing a new modular approach to packaging selected components. The 
first step in this modularization is to remove the Enterprise Generation 
Language (EGL) development environment from the Eclipse-based Software 
Delivery Platform products in which it has been hosted (for example, IBM 
Rational Application Developer, IBM WebSphere Development Studio Client) 
and to make it available as an EGL extension, a separately orderable and 
installable product feature. WebSphere Development Studio Client V7.0 
therefore does not contain any EGL development tools. IBM is currently 
updating and enhancing the EGL development tools and plans to make them 
available starting in second quarter 2007. 

WebSphere Development Studio Client V6 customers who currently use EGL 
should continue to develop EGL applications using WebSphere Development 
Studio Client V6 until the equivalent EGL functionality becomes available 
as a product extension to WebSphere Development Studio Client V7.0. These 
customers will be entitled to obtain the EGL Extension product. 

All statements regarding IBM's plans, directions, and intent are subject 
to change or withdrawal without notice.

Let me guess, IBM figured they were bundling WDSC too cheap in WDS?

I heard EGL was supposed to be the bees knees but maybe they figured that 
the target audience were migrations from mainframes, and, once again, 
those clients are used to throwing so much money at any little subset that 
$1,200 hammers purchased by the Pentagon sounds entirely reasonable?  Or, 
are they planning on giving EGL away, but they just bundle it individually 
(tracking usage perhaps)?
