Re: More on EGL - a new name

I think we must be looking at the elephant from different perspectives. From
reading the IBM official stuff at developworks, it sounds like you buy or order
RDBE - you don't buy EGL. I think IBM Rational is still confusing us big time.
The purpose of my posts is to help people fine the blasted thing - to save them
the time I just had to spend. One thing I know is, if I put "Enterprise
Generation Language" in the search in Software Access Catalog, version 7 is
nowhere to be seen. To get it, I have to use "Developer Business Extensions".
And the assembly for that does not mention EGL at all.

And if civilians try to get the entitled upgrade, whom do they call? What do
they call it?

Maybe you can make some sense of this for the rest of us

Thanks

Maybe so, but check my other post for how to get it - you get EGL in RDBE
- so it is a moot point to me - you will NOT find it as a product called
EGL, as far as I know. I am gleaning this from the EGL page at
developerworks. You also, as a BP, will not find version 7 unless you use
Developer Business Extensions to search the SAC.

Yeah, but the Manager of Marketing for EGL told me specifically that we have
to separate the two. I had to update the presentation on using EGL with the
System i that I will be giving at RSDC. He said RBD is simply the tool used
to build applications in EGL.

Just pointing that the IBM terminology.
