Re: 22% annual maintenance from Oracle on JDE?

What about new releases?  Keys to the software if you move to a different 
model & serial number?

Is it legit for the following:  Oracle issues a fix for a program, let's 
say because of a government regulation change.  And sends it out to the 
people on maintenance.  Can these 3rd parties send out the fix, as written 
by Oracle, to all of their customers?

What was the maintenance fee before Oracle purchased them?

third-party MA's are available, what is going to be the migration of 
customers in a few months time?

by Alex Woodie 

J.D. Edwards shops cringing at the thought of writing 22 percent
maintenance checks to Oracle can rest a little easier knowing there
are other options, and the ranks of companies offering third-party
maintenance programs for World and EnterpriseOne are growing quickly.
Two weeks ago, yet another Denver, Colorado, company threw its hat
into the third-party maintenance ring, joining three others that have
done the same since December.
