GAry, Thanks, but that wasn't the subject I was referring to. I would like JBA to give us some information on what is going on within their company - eg the GEAC staff reductions and now the rumoured demise of JBA Technical Services.

I would > like to know if you got any resolution from GEAC. We are big users of the source code and were somewhat worried by GEAC's announcement. I spoke to our account manager and clarified that as we are contracted to have source we will continue to receive it, for future upgrades and fixes. The issue was addressed at a recent SIG meeting. It appears that GEAC are tightening the application of their contractual liability for source. If you have a contract or take one out for source you are OK. You are supposed to get GEAC's agreement in writing if a third party is going to use the source on your box. Where in the past they have been easy going with source code they will now be much tighter. This is the situation as I understand it in the UK.
